The program is designed for libraries, museums, community arts and cultural organizations, historical societies, public television station affiliates, state humanities councils and others that seek to facilitate informed discussion in their communities about Latino history and culture. This project will feature the PBS documentary series Latino Americans, a production of WETA Washington, DC; Bosch and Co., Inc.; and Latino Public Broadcasting (LPB), as a public programming cornerstone.
The series explores of the rich and varied history and experiences of Latinos, who have helped shape the United States over the last five centuries and who have become, with more than 50 million people, the country's largest minority group.
