Starting in September 15th, KQED TV is celebrating Latin Heritage month.
See below amazing cultural programs for you, your family and amigos!
About its Latin programming:
Hispanic and Latino Heritage Month runs from September 15 to October 15 and it is a great time to learn more about the diversity of Hispanic and Latina/e/o/x experiences and cultures.
In 2020, the U.S. Hispanic population was an estimated 62 million out of the total U.S. population of 331.4 million.
We know that just one descriptor can hardly capture the spirit and cultures of so many people who descend from a vast geography that includes present-day Southwestern U.S. states to the southern most tip of South America, and nearly every present-day country and island in between. This is why you’ll see many different ways in which people describe themselves and their heritage. You’ll see the terms Latina, Latino, and their non-gendered versions Latine and Latinx. You might also see people identify as Hispanic, Chicano, Tejano, Taino, Isleños, Boricua, Afro-Latino, in addition to the many more terms used for people who have families and ancestors in the 22 nations and territories that comprise Latin America.
Hear and see an array of voices and stories in this collection of programs and documentaries. We hope you see yourself represented.
