We cannot talk about National Hispanic Month without talking about the huge contributions that hispanic and latinx people have made that impact this country every day. The music inspires us and gets us up and dancing from artists like Gloria Estefan to Carlos Santana to Selena to Celia Cruz... the list goes on and on. Spotify has a playlist dedicated to top latinx songs. You can check it out here.
There are also so many latinx organizations that are making a real difference within their communities all around the USA. Here is a list of organizations to follow and support:
