It’s the very first day of Latin X Heritage Month 2021! From September 15-October 15, there is an annual celebration of the different cultures from the Spanish-speaking world. North America. South America. Central America. And parts of the Caribbean. This is LatinX!

Should we go deeper into the presence of different colors, within LatinX communities, we are sure to gain incite into the myriad personal, treasures, and cultures of LatinX communities. What are the spiritual understandings, within such communities? Of course, Catholicism is the foundational presence of LatinX communities. Simultaneously, it makes you wonder how these cultures (and nations) of people add their own Spanish flair to this institution. What has been birthed within such lands? Furthermore, how have they contributed to the legacy and cultural treasure of such lands?
Food. Music. Festivities. Architecture. Dance. Attire. The list goes on and on and on. Of course, we comprehend the treasures of the Spanish language. However, we are also addressing the reality of other Indigenous languages, which are still present, within these different countries. Makes you question, or want to explore further, the very meaning of LatinX!
Nevertheless, one has so much to look forward to, for this combination of two months. However, you can’t deny that it’s the colors, which entices you.
