5 Latino Presses that Fight for Multilingualism
With Trump's recent elimination of the Spanish content option on the official White House website, it is important to emphasize that regardless of the whims and wishes of any politician, Spanish still holds and will continue to hold a very important place in U.S. society. With around 40 million people speaking Spanish in the U.S., Hispanophones are the second largest group in this country after Anglophones, contributing greatly to the richness and diversity this country proclaims. With this in mind, we decided to celebrate our Spanish heritage by sharing 5 Latino presses that fight against Trump's imaginary non-Spanish world by publishing works in both English and Spanish. Let us show our support to these presses that are making a difference.
