Burns film’s just 1 example of bad times for Latinos
Tagged: dropout rate, FilmPosted on: September 16th, 2007“These are not the best of times for Latinos. It’s not only Alberto Gonzales, dropout rates and rampant racism against Hispanics.
It is also that not even the Latino soldiers who died for this country – their country – during World War II are recognized and given their place in the history of the nation without a fight.
It could not have been easy for famous documentarian Ken Burns to create “The War,” his new seven-part epic about World War II, while completely ignoring the contributions of about half a million Latinos. Give him credit, though; somehow he managed to do it.”
