For the completion of Hispanic Heritage Month 2021, I would like to share singers / song writers / musicians and artists to reveal the accomplishments of the Hispanic / Latina / Spanish women, and also to emphasize, encourage and thank all who support the strength of a woman within the public realms.
MLB WORLD SERIES 2021!
Within this writing I connect my research endeavours of Hispanic / Spanish heritage with the MLB World Series Championship Tournament. The beauty of research is when we are able to see it come to life with its practical element, thus to create and contribute to the social good of society. It is with these words I offer my congratulations to the Houston Astros for their American League Division Series (ALDS) 2021 win!!! And my good-thoughts to all the teams within the MLB World Series Championship 2021!!! All the best and thank you for our proud baseball history as well as history in the making!!!

Nuestra América Española!
Within this writing I reflect upon a recent documentary that aired on ABC’s Soul of Nation as a special for Hispanic / Spanish Heritage Month. I was particularly drawn to the Dolores Huerta interview and the discussion of Mount Cristo Rey. This documentary connected well to the current book reading of “EL NORTE” especially as this is the first ever documentary that I have watched with a focus on Hispanic / Spanish Heritage. thank you to ABC’s team. Thank you to everyone involved in putting together this documentary!!!
