As the topic of immigration continues to dominate headlines, it
becomes more important to educate young readers on the history of
other cultures, specifically the incredible contributions made by
Latinos in America. The Smithsonian's National Museum of American
History will open a permanent exhibit on influential Latinos in
2021. Charged with the task of telling the long, complicated
relationship of Latinos in the U.S.--a relationship so long, it
predates the country--the gallery offers an opportunity to reflect
on the stories and experiences of Latinas and Latinos throughout
the U.S. today. Nuestra America highlights the incredible
contributions of the following: Sylvia Acevedo Luis Alvarez Pura
