MILMAGLYN: Today is the first day of Hispanic/Latinx Heritage Month!
DINO: Including Hispanic, Latino, Latina, and Latinx!
MILMAGLYN: It’s to recognize and celebrate our diverse communities!
DINO: For example, I’m Mexican.
MILMAGLYN: And I’m Puerto Rican. And we’re not the only ones – we have afro-latin(o,a,x)s and biracial Latin(o,a,x). We’re tall, short, big, thin. We have curly hair, straight hair, brown and blond hair.
DINO: First fact that comes to mind is that Mexican food tends to be spicy.
MILMAGLYN: Puerto Rican food doesn’t tend to be spicy.
DINO: And rice, beans and tortillas are everywhere, even during major holiday meals!
MILMAGLYN: Our food is mostly fried with carbs.
DINO: I can go on and on, a long list of what we really love about our heritage!
MILMAGLYN: We don’t just celebrate for one month! We celebrate everyday.
DINO & MILMAGLYN: Let’s celebrate! (dances)
DINO: Gracias (thank you)!]
