In the article, "Civil rights icon Huerta has advice for a new generation of activists", I learned that just as her father who became a union leader and lawmaker in New Mexico, Dolores Huerta sought to make a difference too. And that was by fighting on behalf of those who couldn't for themselves.

Huerta helped create the United Farm Workers union during the civil rights era of the '50s and '60s to fight for the rights of farm workers, alongside civil rights activist Cesar Chavez. The immigrant workers had been worked so long under poor conditions, to pesticide exposure and terrible hand injuries for little pay, and even less respect. It was horrible times.

Huerta seen this and took initiative fighting for not just community betterment programs, and protective laws to creating a better life for Mexican-Americans, but also coordinated a nationwide consumer boycott of California grapes, lettuce and Gallo wines on behalf of UFW, because the workers of the companies weren't being treated well.

Huerta's done so much more for other underrepresented groups like collective actions such as strikes, social injustice initiatives and community organizing. She had even been apart of achieving California's landmark 1975 Agricultural Labor Relations Act, together with Cesar Chavez, which allowed farm workers to form unions and bargain for better wages and conditions. And all through non-violent actions!

She is a huge role model to all those seeking thoughtful change and teaching others violence and rage in your actions is not ever the answer. Instead channel it into actions and words the opposite of that and truly want to make an impact out of kindness and bravery for all.

This is personally what reading about her has taught me and I hope more stories of other colored people with different backgrounds is taught more throughout school and the world. I didn't even know who this lady was up until now.

Hispanic was created meaning someone who has an historic or cultural link to Spain. Many communities didn’t think of themselves as European or Spanish., so Latino was used. Latino was used in a way to show that they are connected to each other by the history of being colonized and not by the connection to Spain. Latinx was created to be gender neutral because Latino/Latina are not gender neutral. Some people also use a e at the end to make words gender neutral. There isn't one correct word to use, and everyone has different preferences.

The speaker of this Ted talk is Gabby Rivera, the creator of the first ever Latina and Queer Marvel superhero.

She speaks of her life as a child. How she looked at superheroes and didn't see herself in the stories and characteristics of those characters. How she compared herself to her bullies at school and how they related to her feeling invalid.

Her hero's were the Puerto Rican women in her family. How they were powerful and amazing to her, ho they inspired her to be as powerful as they were.

The inspiration from her family helped her to create and publish the first ever Marvel character who was Latina and queer, and to look at herself with more love a appreciation for who she is as a person and creator.

The terms Latino and Latina was a way to refer to people from Spanish speaking countries. In the video, I learned that the term Latinx was made for people that are Gender neutral and are still from Spanish speaking countries. So now more people feel included or something, and many people don't like the term Latinx.

This would play a factor in having more protective laws over these immigrant workers. I also learned how Dolores past about her parents divorce, and how she was inspired by her father to make change.

In the article " Civil rights icon Huerta has advice for a new generation of activists " I learned that Dolores Huerta is a woman activist who fought for the rights of agricultural workers and to improve the educational system. She helped found the “United Farm Workers” union. She thought it was an injustice to see how immigrant workers offered hard work and in exchange received the minimum wage and zero respect. She organized strikes, boycotts and worked alongside Cesar Chavez. Something I would like to add about Cesar Chavez and Dolores Huerta is that Cesar Chavez was much more recognized than Dolores Huerta, he stole the credit of a famous quote that Huerta said and took it as his own and even to this day many people think that “yes, we can” or “si, se puede” was said by him.

She also worked alongside famous activist Cesar Chavez to start the National Farm Workers Association.

Latino refers to males or big groups of Hispanics.
Latina refers to females . Latinx refers to non binary people but it could also refer to big groups of people. Latine could also refers to non binary people or big groups. I'm Latina and I personally think that Latinx and Latine are stupid because its changing the history of being Hispanic. I think that we should just stick to Latina and Latino, it makes it a lot less confusing for non Spanish speakers. I do want to be inclusive but I think I don't think that Latinx or Latine makes sense. cade thinks its confusing because he's not a fluent Spanish speaker, he also thinks we should keep it and just Latino and Latina

Hispanic refers to someone who has a historic or cultural connection to Spain and is Christian. Latino/Latina refers to someone who identifies as a male or female and that has a background in a Latin American community. Latinx refers to someone who does not identify as a male or female and is gender neutral who is also in the Latin community and since it can be difficult to say in Spanish, many also refer to the term as Latine. I had never truly known that there were this many ways to describe someone.

I learned Latinx was made to be used as a gender-neutral word unlike Latino or Latina. But some want to use Latine instead of Latinx because it is harder to pronounce x in Spanish. It is argued on if Latine is used to push gender politics in south American countries as well as create Trans-national solidarity movements.

Something I learned is that many Latinos didn't like the term Hispanic because it was a name that you would call people from Spanish speaking countries. They wanted a term that moved away from Spain's colonization so they created the term Latino or Latina. Since those terms included specific genders, non-binary people wanted a word that could describe them too. From that, the word Latinx was born to include all people from Latin America regardless of gender.

In 1962, Huerta and famous civil rights activist César Chavez started the National Farm Workers Association. It is now called the United Farm Workers. They orchestrated large labor actions, including a massive strike. “The farmworkers couldn’t win by themselves,” Huerta said recently. “They had to reach out to the American public, and all of the 17 million Americans that decided not to eat grapes or lettuce and Gallo wine. And that’s the way that we won.”

Hispanic and Latino are very different terms, though a lot of people mix them up. Hispanic people are people who descended from Spanish speaking populations. Latino, Latina, Or Latinx just refers to someone who is of Latin descent alone.

Back in the day, a lot of Latino and Hispanic people weren't as seen as they are today. The races completely focused on were White and Black, so important history that many know nothing about has flown under the radar.

Latinx was made and used to include people under the transgender and nonbinary umbrella to help them feel included and progress the Latin community.

According to the video, 'The Difference between Hispanic, Latino, and Latinx',  "Latinx is made to ask questions, its made to stop people, to shock them. To include people who may not identify with Latino or Latina. To be all inclusive."
