Campus group Mi Gente kicks off Latinx heritage month by celebrating the power of community
This year’s Latinx Heritage Month (LHM) celebration highlights El Poder de la Comunidad, or "the power of community" — a timely theme in the midst of political, racial, economic and health turmoil. To kick off the celebration on Sept. 18, three days after the official beginning of National Hispanic Heritage Month, Mi Gente partnered with DukeCreate to host a virtual art class with keynote speaker and Duke alumna Dr. Lauren Czaplicki.
