An amusing video looking at the mid-month to mid-month celebration of Hispanic History (or maybe Heritage), or maybe it’s Latino History, unless one is being gender neutral with Latinx, or has a US regional preference for Hispanic vs Latino, or is being pedantically proper about the difference between “Hispanic” (of Spanish heritage) and “Latino” (of Latin American heritage).
Anyway, funny and educational.
Theoretically, I have Hispanic background, as my paternal grandfather’s mother was of “noble Spanish blood” (as an obit put it) whose family migrated to the US from Mexico (but wasn’t Mexican, we are firmly assured) as one of the early settlers (in some accounts) of Phoenix, Arizona. I don’t personally identify as Hispanic, because that’s a pretty thin slice of my mutt-ness, but I do enjoy Mexican food, so Happy Label-of-Your-Choice History Month!
