Hispanic+Activism+Impact

This event has made a huge impact on politics today. The Latino community drew a lot of attention from politics recently. Most Latinos have become a part of the Democratic Party, which have proven to be more consumed, and concerned with discrimination. However, the bridge with the language, religion, and history that segregate the Latino community prevent them from voting as one powerful bloc. Basically, whoever was in office would want the Latinos vote because there were a lot of them. Hispanics were one of the largest minorities. Before the 1970's, Latino's participation in voting was surprisingly low, so most politicians ignored the Latino vote. Latino's political participation has grown tremendously across the country.
