Claudia Romo Edelman, the founder of the nonprofit We Are All Human, has begun a new children's book series highlighting Hispanic heroes. Hispanic Star launches its new books this week.
"Hispanic heroes are American heroes," Claudia Romo Edelman told Fox News Digital in an interview this week."Hispanic values are American values — and Hispanic progress is American progress." , as well as Celia Cruz, born in Cuba and one of the most popular Latin artists of the 20th century; she was known as the"queen of salsa." Roaring Brook Press of the Macmillan's Children Publishing Group is issuing the biography series.
She's launched hundreds of successful campaigns and initiatives — but at the moment, she's focused close to home. "Once I started looking at the data, I realized I’d indeed come to the right place," she added — noting the many millions of Americans of Hispanic descent. Said Edelman about those of Hispanic origin,"We’re not takers. We are makers. And that’s my goal — to set the record straight and to showcase the incredible contributions of Latinos to the country.", I had to insert a sense of pride in my children — because I started looking around, and I saw that people of my age were hiding their Latino heritage.
And not just for children, she said."This is important for all people, adults as well, to have empathy toward others and toward all people, and to grow a sense of togetherness." This will be"a collection of books to give as gifts to children, to schools, to libraries, ideally allowing every Latino child to have access to their heroes."
