GOVERNMENT SHUT DOWN / CAN WE GET RID OF THE NEGATIVES /HISPANIC HERITAGE MONTH

Описание: Just when you think that the year has celebrated everything that we can think of, a few important celebrations come to mind, one such celebration is Hispanic Heritage Month, also known as Indigenous Peoples' Month. In my opinion, if anyone in America should inherit the land here, it should be the Native Americans. Hispanics are a part of their DNA. Noted Spanish countries are Costa Rica, the Caribbean, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Mexico, and Chile. The celebration started in 1968 with Lyndon B Johnson and expanded in 1988 by President Ronald Regan to cover 30 days and was officially enacted into law. The dates for the celebration are September 15 to October 15. Mexico celebrates on the 16th and Chile on the 18th. Each area offers dance and culture like no other, and without these valuable contributions, we would never have enjoyed the delicious cuisines that we now experience. Cuba and Puerto Rico offer Salsa. Tango, Argentina, Cumbia (Columbia), Marachi (Mexico), Bachata (Dominican Republic), or Reggaeton. Historically, Hispanic culture has generated global interest in areas such as politics, music, history, and culture. Sono Sotomyer (First Hispanic Supreme Court Justice), Cesar Chavez and Dolores Huerta ( Civil Rights and influential law leaders), Ellen Ochoa (first in space). Writers, Manuel Miranda and Gabriel Garcia, Cheech of Cheech and Chong famous comedian the impact of the Spanish or Hispanic diaspora. The Mayan, Aztec, and Inca forced the migration of African people into these areas and have fundamentally shaped the foods, folklore, languages, and religious traditions of various peoples in Latin America. Charreada, a traditional rodeo-style event featuring skilled horsemen and women (charros) is often included in this yearly event. Here in Los Angeles, we took our cameras into the downtown area to celebrate Dia de Los Muertos, or Day of the Dead. The streets were full of booths, each one serving authentic Mexican food and playing music that satisfied the souls of all of those who were present to hear it, and most of all, the celebration of family. In so many parts of the world, it is with honor that a man gives it daughter to life and growing, this is exactly the case in the celebrated Quinceañera, a coming-of-age celebration for young women. She dresses in a ball gown much like a wedding dress. Her court of honor is her closest friends, who at the ceremony are equal in number to the number of years of her childhood. The changing of the shoes when her flats are replaced by her father with high heels signifying the change from girl to woman. Her friends, including her father, dance the Waltz with her. There are many contributions that the Spanish communities offer. In music, film, and television, culture and history are many. Dr. Carlos Juan Finlay, Cuban, is credited with identifying the mosquito as the vector for yellow fever in 1881. Dr. Jacinto Convit Venezuelan Spanish American biochemist, won the Nobel Peace Prize for his work on the synthesis of RNA. Dr. Severo Ochoa, Spanish American biochemist, Nobel Prize winner; Dr. Baruj Benacerraf, Venezuelan American immunologist; Mario J. Molina, chemist; Franklin Chang-Diaz, Costa Rican American astronaut and physicist, veteran of seven space shuttle missions. Arts, Literature, and culture, Diego Rivera, Frida Kahlo brought social and political commentary to public art. Pablo Picasso and Salvador.or Dali, and Fernando Botero. Hispanic actors and directors Gullermo Del Toro, Alejandro Sanz, and Puerto Rican singer Rauw Alejandro. Inarritu and Aldonso Cuaron have won numerous Grammy and Academy Awards. Manuel Miranda's Broadway hit, Hamilton, has made revolutionary cultural strides. In our celebration this month of Hispanic Heritage, let us not forget what a grim and dismal life that we would all have if it were not for cultural exchange and the global ambition to connect.
