Título :	Latino identity in the civil rights movement
Editorial :	Red Iberoamericana de Pedagogía
Descripción :	The subject of the Latin American heritage and history in our public school system is indisputablyone of the most underestimated subjects. Latin American culture is in fact underrepresentedacross most subjects such as social studies, reading, and writing or language arts. The Latinopopulation in public school systems has grown and it is expected to increase rapidly due tofloods of immigrants from Latin America in the last 40 years. According to the Pew ResearchCenter, the Latino population since 1970s has increased six fold. In 2012, the Latino populationin U.S was 53 million. While waves of Latino immigrants flooded the metropolitan areas suchas New York City, Los Angeles, and New Jersey in search for job opportunities, 1 the generalassumption was that these newcomers needed to become integrated or assimilated into themainstream culture. However, one must also take into consideration that the newly-arrivedimmigrants already carry a Latino identity that cannot be ignored. That identity makes up therich diversity and cultural outlook of our schools and classrooms
