Latine Heritage Month
LHM is celebrated from September 15th to October 15th!
LHM at UMD is planned collaboratively between the MICA office and the Coalition of Latinx Student Organizations.
This year our committee has selected the theme “Sueños sin Fronteras”, Spanish for Dreams without Borders. For the committee, the theme acts as a way to reflect on the impact that immigration has had on our communities. It is a call to honor the stories and sacrifices that generations made before us in order to uplift and nurture future generations. However, the theme also asks us to wonder what it means to dream without borders for a liberated future.
The theme for this year's heritage month is intended to act as inspiration for any programming you may choose to do, and we of course welcome programs or events with topics outside of the theme.
If you are interested in hosting a program, event, or initiative for Latine Heritage Month, please email Alex Mullen at ajmul@umd.edu with event details. Thank you!
