Sept 19

If I were learning about Hispanic/Latino heritage for the first time, I would be curious to know more about the different celebrations and what they mean to the people who celebrate them. I would like to learn about traditional foods, like tamales or empanadas, and how they are connected to family gatherings. I would also be interested in music, since it seems to play such an important role in bringing people together. Exploring these traditions would help me understand not just the culture, but also the values of family, community, and joy that are often shared through them.

That day marked a turning point; I realized I had something worth saying and the strength to say it. It was the start of a journey toward self-confidence and leadership I never expected.
