Op-ed: They're Trans, They're Hispanic, and They've Changed This World
EZRA YOUNG SEPTEMBER 22 2014

"Part of the beauty of National Hispanic Heritage Month, celebrated from September 15 to October 15 annually in the U.S., is the unmistakable celebration of achievements, past and present, of our diverse familia. We are not, as President Obama notes in his 2014 proclamation, a monolithic group.

Indeed, the diversity within the Latino population is striking. We trace our family lines to more than a dozen countries. Many of us share in the nation's rich immigrant tradition — past and present. And some of us, myself included, are trans."
