This celebration began as Hispanic Week in 1968. In 1988, the commemorative week was expanded to a month. September 15th was chosen as the start of the the commemoration because it tis the anniversary of Cry of Dolores, which is the start of the Mexican War of Independence. Many other Central American countries commemorate their independence from Spain on September 15, 16 or 18th.

Rogers Public Library is highlighting the various cultures of our Hispanic community by having several events throughout this month and showing some of the items from our Latinx Advisory Committee in our lobby display!

For more information about the events during Hispanic Heritage Month, visit the events on our Facebook page or go to the blog posts below.

My Shoes and I: Crossing Three Borders / Mis zapatos y yo: Cruzando tres fronteras
By/Por: René Colato Laínez (Author)
Illustration by/ Illustration by: Fabricio Vanden Broeck
La historia se basa en la propia experiencia del autor de dejar El Salvador y atravesar Guatemala y México con su padre en 1985. Con sus zapatos nuevos, el joven René sale de su casa y de sus amigos en un día ventoso. En Guatemala es perseguido por perros hambrientos, y en la Ciudad de México papá pierde su billetera. Toman autobuses, caminan por millas, duermen en un remolque en ruinas, escalan montañas y finalmente nadan a través de un río. Mientras tanto, sus zapatos se vuelven polvorientos, empapados, embarrados y desarrollan agujeros redondos y horribles en las suelas. Finalmente, cuando salen del río, Mamá está allí esperándolos y sus zapatos están con él. Todos juntos, cruzan la frontera.

Celebrando mi lenguaje, idioma y dialecto - 10:15 am a 11:15 am
Al celebrar el mes de la herencia hispana, acompáñenme a platicar y celebrar nuestro lenguaje, idioma y dialecto.
Esteraremos repasando lo que ya sabemos sobre los lenguajes, idiomas, y dialectos. También, escuchara de las normas típicas del desarrollo del lenguaje, como podemos identificar si nuestros hijos tienen un retraso en el habla y cómo podemos ayudarlos para que ellos mantengan creciendo, aprendiendo, hablando y celebrando nuestro lenguaje, idioma o dialecto.
