How different was it to be Hispanic when you were growing up vs. today?<\/strong><br \/>\nLatinos today are expanding and meeting their goals versus when I was growing up, there was no vision on goals.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. When was the first time you heard about Hispanic Heritage Month and what did you think back then?<\/strong><br \/>\nThe first time I heard about Hispanic Heritage Month was when President George H. W. Bush proclaimed it on September 14, 1989.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Who is one influential Hispanic personality you really admire and why?<\/strong><br \/>\nMusician Tito Puente. The why is because he was Hispanic and famous in our community.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5.
