Welcome to the Season Premiere Fiesta! We're celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month. In this bilingual episode, we celebrate the rich diversity of Hispanic culture and history. Join our guests in a joyful celebration recognizing the contributions and influence to the history, culture, and achievements of the United States. Enjoy!

Hispanic Heritage Month, originally established in 1968 as National Hispanic Heritage Week, was created to honor the anniversaries of independence for several Latin American countries. In 1988, it was expanded to a month-long celebration, fostering a deeper appreciation of Hispanic and Latino contributions to American culture. Today, it serves as a vibrant platform for cultural festivities, educational programs, and cross-cultural understanding, emphasizing the vital role of Hispanic heritage in shaping the American mosaic.
