National Hispanic Heritage Month recognized in the USA for all Hispanic/LatinX achievements and recognition of Hispanic/LatinX culture, we celebrate our diversity especially in Northern California and applaud all of Hispanic/Latinx Swimmers! Here is a reprint of a statement from our USA Artistic Swim Federation: USA Artistic Swimming September 24 at 10:00 AM · Highlighting the current Hispanic and Latina individuals that are a part of our national team program! Anita Alvarez represented this community at the Olympic Games this summer. 🎉 Did you know classification of Hispanic/Latina isn’t as straightforward as it may seem? Many resources classify Hispanics as people with lineage to Spain or those from Spanish-speaking countries in Latin America and describe Latinos as people from Latin America regardless of language. The Census Bureau relies purely on self reporting and lets people identify as they see fit. By these measures, about 19% of the U.S. population is Hispanic.
