Combining academic lectures, distinguished speakers and cultural events, Hispanic Heritage Month is an exciting opportunity to create greater awareness of the heritage and contemporary achievement of Hispanic and Latino cultures. Hispanic Heritage Month begins Monday, Sept. 15, the anniversary of independence for five Latin American countries — Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua, which declared independence from Spain in 1821. Mexico had earlier declared its independence on Sept. 16, 1810, and Chile on Sept. 18, 1810. This year’s celebration is titled “Getting Involved: Our Families, Our Community, Our Nation.” Both Gov. Mike Beebe and University of Arkansas Chancellor G. David Gearhart have proclaimed that September 15 through October 15 to be Hispanic Heritage Month in the state of Arkansas and on the University of Arkansas campus. “This series of events is really for anyone who appreciates the contributions that the Hispanic culture brings to this country and this state. The theme for this year reminds us that for a nation to succeed we all have to be involved, not only our families and our community but the whole nation itself,” said Veronikha Salazar, assistant director of the Multicultural Center and chair of the Hispanic Heritage Month Committee. Today, more than 40 million people of Hispanic and Latino ancestry reside in the United States, making them the largest ethnic minority in the country and the fifth-largest population among the 19 Spanish-speaking countries of the world. According to the 2000 census, 67 percent of the Hispanic and Latino population of the United States trace their origins to Mexico, 14 percent to Central and South America, 9 percent to Puerto Rico, 4 percent to Cuba, and 7 percent to other Hispanic origins.
