Extended excerpt [Essay]:
“The political power flows from the people, and it will come. But why wait to be forced to see the many-colored Hispanos/Latinos who are now already neighbors? Let’s invite people to look at the art, read the stories, smell and savor the food, dance to the music, understand and acknowledge that there are many Americas, many communities, not just one. And let us put the fear of each other aside. Don’t just tolerate people, love people. All good flows from that.” (p. 10)
