Hi, I hope you are all enjoying Hispanic Heritage Month events and
activities. This is a good time to give positive visibility to our ancestors. The
featured article is on National History Day, an opportunity for each of us to help
encourage inclusive history within our community schools.
A big thank you to all for the interesting materials, articles and
information that I receive in abundance. If you have sent something which you've not
seen published yet, please let me know. It is difficult to keep each issue
under 180 pages and keep a balance and a variety.
This notification is a service, if you prefer not to receive it, please let
me know.
Warm Regards, Mimi
