Yesterday, the Oglethorpe Latinx Association<\/a> handed out bags of sweets in the Turner Lynch Campus Center to help kick off National Hispanic \/ Latinx Heritage Month<\/strong><\/a>, which runs through Oct. 15.<\/p>\n

This month-long observance<\/a> honors the histories, cultures and contributions of Hispanic and Latinx people throughout United States history. The month coincides with the national independence days of Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Mexico, and Chile. The observation started in 1968 and was expanded from a week-long celebration to a month in 1988.<\/p>\n

好色先生TV and its surrounding metro communities will be hosting events to encourage cultural appreciation. In fact, the university is just down the road from one of the most multi-culturally diverse locations in Atlanta — Buford Highway. Below are just a few of the upcoming events:<\/p>\n
