(FORT COLLINS, CO) In Colorado, a national debate about the role of Latinos in American society has deep roots in the state’s history, current identity — and future.
I’m a professor of ethnic studies at Colorado State University. I recently published a book titled “Latino Colorado: The Struggle for Equality in the Centennial State.” In it, I explore how Latinos in Colorado have bridged Old West and New West industries to help our state grow. As a longtime resident of the state, I have witnessed many of these socioeconomic phenomena firsthand and through my research.
