Disappearing Places: Protecting Latino/Hispanic History from Erasure
April 22, 2025 |
Many historic sites that tell the vibrant stories of Latino and Hispanic communities are at risk, facing threats from redevelopment, neglect, and shifting public interest. Iconic places like Olvera Street in Los Angeles, rich with cultural heritage, stand on the brink of erasure and gentrification. Preserving these sites is not just about saving buildings; it’s about honoring the legacy and contributions of Latino and Hispanic communities in shaping our nation. In this webinar, we’ll delve into the critical efforts to safeguard these historic places and discuss how communities and government officials can work together to ensure their survival for future generations. Join us as we explore the challenges and successes of Latino and Hispanic historic preservation and why it’s more important than ever to foster active stewardship and engagement.
