How many Latinos or Hispanics live in the United States? Are we in US?
By Patricia Gracia
2010 Census data will increase the number and will not be 47 million. We know that most Hispanics who live in the U.S. are Mexicans (60%) but not all came here across the border as I did I and many millions of immigrants, threatening our lives and giving all out to reach our goal, the American dream. Many of the Hispanics, today, we have our roles to work and live in this society, we are part of this country’s economy, and why not the world’s economy. Our skills are many, but the biggest, is that we are hard workers and passionate lovers of everything we do. We are rebels by nature, and whether the bad or good economy, won’t limit us to continue fighting for what we have to
accomplish. It's amazing to have four million Puerto Ricans in this country. More “Boricuas” live in the U.S. than in their own “Enchanted Island”. The variety of cultures, traditions and nationalities are unique and inspirational. It is unbelievable.
No need to travel to Latin America, Latin America is here!
We are part of this country and finally found a common denominator in order to be part of this society, love our foreign countries and our families. If I had to pick a name to this new country, with variety of cultures that is, the perfect name would be
"Hispanos Unidos "---- I like it!
