1. Asian Latinos and the US Census»

    Numbering more than 300,000, “Asian Latinos” are a large but overlooked segment of the Asian American and Latino popu-lations of the United States. Drawing from data generated fromthe 5 percent Public Use Microdata Samples of the 2000 U.S.Census, this article provides a preliminary quantitative analysisof the Asian Latino community. In particular, it examines the de-mographic characteristics of population size, geographic distri- bution, national origin, gender, age, citizenship, and educationalattainment. In addition, it examines several policy implicationsrelated to Asian Latino coalition building and undocumented im-migrant advocacy

About

This award-winning project started as the formal US focus on Black History Month (February 1-28/9) was upon us. Please know that our goal to celebrate all of the peoples who have influence and history via the African Diasporas. Expanding the inclusively of Blackness is not just during Black History Month but all year round for several of us, self-identified LatiNeg@s, Afr@Latin@s, BlakTin@s, and Afr@-Caribeñ@s.

This site is 365 days a year 24 hours a day 7 days a week! As people who recognize and claim the African heritage and history, we have often been excluded from US History, whether it be Black history, Women's Herstory (March), LGBTQA history, or Latin@ history (September 15-October 15) (to name a few). Join us in honoring and recognizing LatiNegr@s this year during Black, Women, LGBTQA, and Latin@ History Month and year round! We are Black, Latin@ and from all over the world! We REPRESENT!

Please share any images, videos, quotes, websites, links etc. you'd like to include on this page. Go to http://lati-negros.tumblr.com/submit to submit what you'd like to contribute.

TRIGGER WARNING: This space discusses the lived realities and histories of people who identify as racially Black and ethnically Latin@ all over the world. Posts may reference violence in many forms and topics and discussion may range from ableism to xenophobia to everything in between.
