An urgent, provocative collection of essays from Latinx thought
leaders heralding a more inclusive vision of America's future
Latinx people make up the second-largest ethnic and racial group in
America, with a population of over sixty million. They have been
integral to shaping the country's economy, culture, and politics,
and their influence and power continue to grow at all levels of
civic life. Yet their diversity remains misunderstood, their
contributions ignored, their concerns overlooked. If We Want to Win
brings together twenty leading figures involved in issues that
affect the Latinx community, to lay out a vision for the future of
American democracy, drawing on their experience and expertise in
areas ranging from the arts, juvenile justice, women's rights, and
education, to environmental justice, racism, human rights,
immigration, technology, and philanthropy. Each contributor tells
his or her own story alongside stories of the resilience and hope
they have encountered over the course of their careers, debunking
the stereotyping and scapegoating that continue to plague the
Latinx community and seeking a more accurate portrayal of
themselves and their communities. While questioning what it means
to be Latinx and what it means to be American in the twenty-first
century, this inspiring, visionary collection offers a blueprint
for moving the United States toward a more inclusive and just
democracy.
