En el dia 16 de septiembre de mil ochocientos diez, el sacerdote católico Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla lanzó el famoso “Grito de Dolores”, así dando inicio a la guerra por la independencia mexicana.
210 years later, Mexicans across the globe still celebrate September 16 in commemoration of Mexican Independence. And in the U.S., we celebrate the countless contributions Hispanic Americans have made to this country with National Hispanic Heritage Month, which runs from September 15th to October 15th.
Please join KOOP Radio and KOOP’s Community Council as we celebrate Dieciseis, Hispanic Heritage Month, and all Hispanic and Latinx Americans with special programming through the months of September and October.
A gritar!
