Last week there was an event billed as The First Latino Townhall. I watched the meeting via a Facebook Live from a feed provided by Marco Munoz. The event was well attended and the speakers were enthusiastic and gave heartfelt remarks.
I have been involved in the Latino community for over 40 years and know there have been many political events for the Latino community over the years. There have been several Latino Days at the Legislature where hundreds attended. There have been conferences focused on teaching Latinos about how a bill is passed. There have been seminars featuring presentations from elected Latino legislators discussing their role in the House of Representatives and in the Senate.
