Latinos observe Black History Month at arm’s length, as if it were strictly a celebration of black culture, having nothing to do with Latino culture. But Latino history has much in common with black history. Both were oppressed; both fought for civil rights; both fought for their freedom. They often both fought together. They promoted and re-envi- sioned American history as a shared story of struggle -- for justice, dignity, and equality for all.
