La celebraciĆ³n de este mes me provoca sentimientos encontrados. Me emociona ver que AmĆ©rica del Norte reconoce las contribuciones que las personas De origen hispano/latino han hecho para construir esta naciĆ³n.
The month’s celebration brings mixed sentiments for me. Like, Iām thrilled to see North America recognize the contributions people of Hispanic/Latino background have made to building his nation.
Para mi, el mes de la Herencia Hispana significa tiempo de mostrar nuestras tradiciones y valores,y Una oportunidad para mostrar que juntos somos mas fuertes y que continuaremos contribuyendo al desarrollo de este paĆs que nos ha adoptado, de nuestros paĆses que nos vieron nacer y de nuestras familias que son nuestra inspiraciĆ³n para seguir adelante.
For me, Hispanic Heritage Month means a time to showcase our traditions and values, and
an opportunity to demonstrate that together we are stronger and will continue to contribute
to the development of this country that has adopted us, our home countries that saw us born,
and our families who inspire us to move forward.
