ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.,Oct. 5, 2016 (AP): Latinoscholars and activists arecriticizing Republican MikePence for referring to “thatMexican thing,” at the vicepresidential debate as hetried to brush aside criticismof Donald Trump’s com-ments about Mexican im-migrants.

They said Pence’s remarkwas dehumanizing andtinged with sexual innuendo.

Pence’s comment cameafter Democratic vice presi-dential Tim Kaine pressedthe Republican on Trump’sremarks last year compar-ing Mexican immigrants torapists.

“Senator, you whippedout that Mexican thingagain,” Pence said.

By Wednesday,(hash)ThatMexicanThingwas trending on Twitter asLatinos widely made fun ofthe remark with memes, gifs,and satirical versions ofTrump’s “Make AmericaGreat Again” red cap.

“Proud to be ‘that Mexi-can thing!”’ JavierMartinez, a New MexicoDemocratic lawmaker,tweeted Wednesday.

There was no immediatecomment from the Trump-Pence campaign about criti-

As Hispanic Heritage Month comes to a close, I want to take the opportunity to saythank you to the amazing, inspiring young Latinas I’ve met as I’ve crossed the countryfor this campaign.

Your generation is unlike any that has come before. You’re growing up at a time whenyou have an incredible opportunity to write our nation’s next chapter. Many of you arethe first in your family to go to college or own your own business. You’re the daughtersof trailblazers who broke barriers so you could pursue your dreams. You’re activists,entrepreneurs, and dreamers, and you know what it means to work hard and never letanything get in your way.

From actors like Gina Rodriguez to DREAMers like Larissa Martínez, the high schoolvaledictorian who came out as undocumented in her graduation speech, each of you isbuilding the legacy we celebrate this month. And you’re doing it by writing your ownstory.

But despite all your hard work and success, there are still too many barriers holdingyou back. I see Latina students trying to get a college education, slammed with risingtuition costs and student debt. I see entrepreneurs eager to start new businesses,navigating too much red tape. I see mothers balancing work and family as best you can,but still struggling to find safe, affordable childcare.

HERE ARE THE MAIN PARTS OF MY PLAN:More and more women are the breadwinners in families across America, yet on average

Latinas make 55 cents for every dollar a white man makes. We need to update our policiesto match how families live and work today. Let’s close that pay gap, raise the minimumwage, guarantee paid family leave, and make childcare available to every family.

We’ll put in motion a plan I created with Bernie Sanders to make college tuition-freefor working families and debt-free for all families. If you already have student loans, we’llhelp you refinance them or defer them to start a business. The number of Latina-ownedsmall businesses has more than tripled in the last twenty years. That’s amazing. Weshould be doing more to support Latina entrepreneurs, because you’re a big force foreconomic growth.

And I will fight to pass comprehensive immigration reform with a path to citizenship.This is a goal whose time has long since come. I know many families are disappointedthat we haven’t achieved it yet — I am too. But we can’t give up or become resigned.We need to stand together and fight to get this done, for as long as it takes. And if I’melected, I’m going to make this a top priority of my presidency.

When I listen to Latinas talk about your culture, the importance of family stands out.You tell me that when someone in your family succeeds, everyone succeeds. Whensomeone is struggling, you all come together to help them. To me, this is the definitionof community. And I want our country to start thinking this way too. That’s what I meanwhen I say that we’re stronger together.

And I think we need to spread that message far and wide, especially now. Because thiselection has left a lot of people feeling anxious or scared. I hear it everywhere I go. We’veseen the rise of a presidential candidate who began his campaign by declaring thatMexicans are rapists and murderers. He said a distinguished federal judge couldn’t betrusted to do his job because of his Mexican heritage. And he derided Alicia Machado,a former Miss Universe and new American citizen, calling her “Miss Housekeeping”because she’s Latina.

So much of his rhetoric is full of prejudice and paranoia. So I understand why so manyyoung people tell me they wonder if our country even sees their value — as Latinos, asLatinas, as Americans.

So let me be clear. Whether you’re Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Afro-Latino . . .whether your family just arrived or has been here since before the United States evenexisted . . . you make our nation stronger, smarter, and more creative. You belong. Andmillions of your fellow Americans respect, value, and appreciate you. I am one of them.

This is your chance — your chance to shape America’s future, your chance to standup to racism and exclusion and say, “This is my country too.” So let’s stand together.

Millennials make up nearly half of Latino eligible voters in this election. This is yourchance — your chance to shape America’s future, your chance to stand up to racism andexclusion and say, “This is my country too.” So let’s stand together. Let’s show the worldonce and for all that, in America, love always trumps hate.

NEW YORK, Oct. 4, 2016(AP): Rita Moreno said thatRepublican presidential can-didate Donald Trump “scaresthe hell out of me” and urgedLatinos to register to vote inorder to keep him out of theWhite House.

The award-winning singerand actress said Tuesday thatit’s necessary Latinos regis-ter now as voter registrationdeadlines in battlegroundstates approach.

“Never before have we hada presidential candidate asxenophobic and, my words,unhinged as Donald Trump,and never before haveLatino voters have had asmuch power as we do now,although I think that some ofus don’t know that,” said Ms.Moreno during a phone callorganized by the liberal-

leaning group People for theAmerican Way.

Ms. Moreno, 84, who isone of the rare performers towin an Oscar, Tony, Grammy,and Emmy, said that Latinosneed to register “so that at thevery least we can keep a racistout of the White House.”

A Trump spokesperson didnot respond to messages seek-ing comment.

Trump’s policies and toneon immigration have sparkedpassionate reactions from mi-nority voters. His vow tobuild a massive wall alongthe Mexican border is a pil-lar of his agenda and he de-scribed Mexico sending rap-ists and criminals across theborder in his announcementspeech.

Ms. Moreno, who is PuertoRican, was one of the partici-

pants of a call in which Peoplefor the American Way an-nounced a bilingual voterregistration ad campaign instates like North Carolina,Ohio, Arizona, Georgia andVirginia. Labor and civilrights activist DoloresHuerta also participated inthe call.

Ms. Moreno said that shehas “never seen so many His-panic people so angry andtherefore so motivated tovote.” She added: ``Neverhave I have seen such emo-tion and fury. This man, ob-viously I am speaking of Mr.Trump, really scares the hellout of me, frankly I am fear-ful. I am afraid of him.”

cism of Pence’s remark. Thecampaign has been trying toincrease its appeal to Latinosand other minorities who tendto favor Democrats and couldprove pivotal in key states, in-cluding Florida.

Mexican-American syndi-cated cartoonist Lalo Alcarazsaid the moment the wordscame out of Pence’s mouth “Iknew it was going to be big.”

Alcaraz drew a cartoon of aLatino man holding a card thatread, “my vote.” Above theman read the words: whip outthat Mexican thing again.

Some Latinos, however, sawlittle humor in Pence’s remarks.

A leading House Demo-crat, Rep. Xavier Becerra ofCalifornia, said Pence’swords brought back painfulmemories.

“As the son of immigrants,I’ve lived with the ‘Mexicanthing’ all my life,” Becerra toldThe Associated Press. “I neverwould have believed that intomy 50s I would witness a can-didate for president and vicepresident mainstreaming thesame hurtful rhetoric.”

A top state lawmaker inCalifornia, Kevin de León, saidPence’s remarks were “abso-lutely disgraceful.”

“He said it like we’re anirritant, (like) he is bothered byour presence and our contribu-

tion to the fabric of this greatnation,” said de León, whosemother grew up in Mexico.

Pence’s words also led tothe creation of a web address,ThatMexicanThing.com, thatredirects visitors to HillaryClinton’s campaign website.

In addition, the Latinovoting rights advocacy groupVL Action Network regis-tered the web address,www.thatmexicanthing.org,“to drive eligible voters toregister to vote against thescapegoating and completedismissal of the Latino com-munity.”

Alexandro José Gradilla,a Chicana and Chicano Stud-ies professor at CaliforniaState University, Fullerton,said the way Pence used theword “Mexican” and “thing”seemed the suggest Mexican-Americans were objects, notpeople. “It was very reveal-ing, especially because of theway Trump has used the word‘Mexican’ in the past,”Gradilla said.

Some see the word “Mexi-can” as going beyond describ-ing a nationality and some-times being used as a sluragainst U.S.-born Latinos.

WASHINGTON, DC, 5 X16 (AP): Ministroslatinoamericanos definanzas expresaron elmiércoles preocupación porlas posturas proteccionistasadoptadas por loscandidatos a la Casa Blancay se comprometieron arelanzar la integración re-gional para estimular elcrecimiento económico.

“Claro que es un riesgo.No es solamente Brexit loque preocupa sino tambiénla retórica de la campaña enEstados Unidos,independientemente dequien gane”, dijo el ministroargentino de finanzasAlfonso Prat-Gay trasreunirse con 22 homólogosde la región en la sede delBanco Interamericano deDesarrollo.

Prat-Gay aseguró que elpróximo presidenteestadounidense encontraráen los foros hemisféricos unapostura que propicie laintegración.

La demócrata HillaryClinton y el republicanoDonald Trump se hanmanifestado en contra delPacto Transpacífico, unacuerdo comercial que elgobierno del presidenteBarack Obama negociócon México, Chile, Perú yotros ocho países en la

cuenca del Pacífico.Trump incluso ha dicho

que de obtener la presidenciaen las elecciones del 8 denoviembre buscaría anular elacuerdo comercial suscritocon México y Canadá, al queresponsabiliza por ladesaparición de millones deempleos en Estados Unidos.

Santiago Peña Palacios,ministro paraguayo de Haci-enda, reconoció que “siempreestán estos riesgos más allá dela elección” estadounidensey agregó que “en nuestrospaíses siempre hay sectoresmás renuentes a estos procesosde integración”.

Peña explicó que durantela reunión sus homólogos secomprometieron a asumir lainiciativa para impulsar unaagenda integracionista,estancada por los cuantiososingresos que muchas nacioneslatinoamericanas obtuvieronal exportar materias primasdurante la década pasada.

“Lo que hoy discutimoses el rol que tenemos quetener los ministros definanzas de la región envolver a liderar esta agenda,que requiere una visiónmucho más pragmática de losacuerdos comerciales ymenos ideológica”, agregó.

El presidente del BID, LuisAlberto Moreno, señaló queel comercio entre los países

l a t i n o a m e r i c a n o srepresenta apenas un 18%del total de su comercio,lo cual en su opinión “abreuna posibilidad” paraexpandir los acuerdoscomerciales.

Al encuentroasistieron además ladirectora gerente del FMI,Christine Lagarde; elpresidente del BancoMundial, Jim Yong Kim;y el secretario del Tesorode Estados Unidos, JacobJ. Lew.

La región se enfrenta auna difícil situacióneconómica caracterizadapor el debilitamiento de lademanda mundial y el findel súper ciclo de lasmaterias primas.

El Fondo MonetarioInternacional redujopronosticó la vísperaseñalando que laeconomía de AméricaLatina se contraerá 0,6%en 2016 en lo que será susegundo año consecutivode crecimiento negativo.

Los ministros delcontinente sostuvieron suencuentro en el marco de lareunión otoñal que elFondo MonetarioInternacional y el BancoMundial celebran estasemana en la capitalestadounidense.

CLEVELAND, October 8,2016: Convención Hispana2016 drew about three thou-sand of Latinos looking to findanswers to ongoing problemsin their community—as wellas listen to a lifetime of storiestold by an Oscar-winningLatina entertainer still activein acting and media.

An estimated 3,000 peoplecrowded Max S. Hayes HighSchool for a day filled withagenda-setting, seminars, a jobfair, and health screenings.

Rita Moreno was the key-note speaker at the Clevelandevent, long-known for bring-ing in up-and-coming Latinopolitical leaders and activists.However, Ms. Moreno did notdisappoint in her remarks abouther struggles to be accepted bythe mainstream throughout hercareer as an actress, singer, andentertainer.

Her appearance also provedextraordinarily timely, as theactress/activist made head-lines last week in an Associ-ated Press article urging Latinosto vote, while saying Republi-can presidential candidateDonald Trump “scares the hellout of me.” [See page 2 of LaPrensa.]

The rare winner of the BigFour awards of Hollywood—as Oscar, Tony, Grammy, andEmmy—stated the need hasnever been greater for Latinosto vote during that conferencecall with reports “so at the veryleast we can keep a racist out of

the White House.”“Oh, I think it’s imperative—

and it’s not just my opinion,”she said of the divisive presi-dential campaign. “I recentlyhad somebody tell me ‘I don’tneed political opinions from asinger.’ I swear to God. Theydisembodied me and I suddenlybecame a singer with politicalopinions.

They were allowed to havethe opinions, but I wasn’t be-cause I’m a performer. It’s in-credible.”

The Puerto Rican-born ac-tress called the Supreme Courtvacancy and immigration thetop issues of the presidentialcampaign for Latinos.

“I think it plays an enor-mously important part,” saidMs. Moreno of immigration.“I’ve never seen such emotionand such rage in the Hispaniccommunity, because of Mr.Trump’s opinions and his bi-

zarre notions of what makes agood American. I think it’s notjust the Hispanic community,too. I think it’s a lot of otherpeople.”

The entertainer admittedTrump does deserve credit forbringing immigration to thefront burner of political dis-cussion. But she is staunchlysupporting Hillary Clinton forpresident.

“Every time I think of awall, I truly sit and snicker,”said Ms. Moreno. “‘I’m goingto build that wall.’ Really? Ican’t wait to see this. It’s notgoing to happen, of course.”

The decade-old tape thatsurfaced Last Friday with aconversation betweenTrump and Billy Bush abouthow he treated women onlyserved to make the billion-aire businessman even lessof a qualified candidate inMs. Moreno’s mind.

“I do think the man isunhinged. I think the manis mentally incapaci-tated,” said Ms. Moreno.“I don’t mean that as in-sulting. I think he has aserious mental problem andif it was anybody else, Ithink he’d be under obser-vation in some hospital.”

The actress stated herhope Ms. Clinton wouldcontinue PresidentObama’s executive ordersto help keep families intactwith immigration reformschallenged to the U.S. Su-

preme Court by Texas and otherstates, known in shorthand byDAPA and DACA.

Ms. Moreno, 84 met withreporters before her keynoteaddress, taking the opportu-nity to promote her autobiog-raphy, Rita Moreno, A Mem-oir, which also has a Spanishversion in print.

She remains very busy, re-cording a Spanish-languagesong album, too. Both the re-cording and book are avail-able on amazon.com.

Ms. Moreno is starring inan updated Netflix version ofthe TV comedy classic OneDay at a Time, produced by TVicon Norman Lear, who wasalso involved in the originalseries. But this more modernversion focuses on a Cuban-American family. That 13-partseries will begin airing Janu-ary 6, 2017.

“It’s absolutely hilarious.It’s a very terrific series. In typi-cal Norman Lear fashion, ev-ery episode has a social issue,”she said. “I’m a very busy per-son. My life is terrific rightnow.”

Ms. Moreno took on a lot ofstereotypical roles throughouther career, roles she readilyadmitted she would turn downin today’s environment. Shestated the “door was barelyajar” in her early acting career,but admitted it’s more opennow, as you see more Latinoson screen working in TV. Butshe was quick to point thatinfusion of Latino talent hasnot translated to the big screen.

“It was difficult. It was hard.I went through a lot of what otherpeople have gone through,” shesaid, emphasizing her story re-lates to so many others in theaudience. “I think it helps,because what I see now is theresult of a lot of pain and strife,fortitude, and perseverance.”

Ms. Moreno called on Hol-lywood to “give Hispanicsroles that will earn them (award)nominations.”

“That has to come next. Ithink that’s going to take moretime,” she admitted.

Ms. Moreno wasn’t sure thelast time she had traveled toOhio, but did vividly recall apast performance with theCleveland Symphony, whichshe called “glorious.” She tooka brief tour of the city beforeConvención Hispana, callingit “gorgeous” and was “aston-ished at the beauty.” She also

attended a book signing whilevisiting the city.

Organizers pointed to theimportance of this conven-tion, not only because of thegrowing economic and po-litical power of the overallHispanic population, but therecent presidential candida-cies of U.S. Senator MarcoRubio (R- Florida) and U.S.Senator Ted Cruz (R- Texas).

“It’s abundantly clear thattoday in America, there is aHispanic who will be presi-dent of the United States,”predicted attorney JoséFeliciano in his opening re-marks. “Think about it. To-day, that person is alive andsomewhere in the UnitedStates. Now, you just don’tknow who that person is, butbe assured that person is al-ready born in the UnitedStates. That’s a future presi-dent. From my perspective,we want to bend the arc ofhistory and get to the sun-light as soon as we can.”

Cleveland Mayor FrankJackson and CuyahogaCounty Executive ArmandBudish both made appear-ances at ConvenciónHispana, a nod to its grow-ing influence in the greatercommunity.

“This serves as a platformto bring some consensusabout in the community andhow to move forward as acommunity,” Mayor Jack-son told the crowd.

Budish echoed those sen-timents, while also pointingout the convention’s threeplatforms—education, eco-nomic development, and em-powerment, closely mirror thecounty’s goals. He pointedout his task is to pursue eco-nomic prosperity for all resi-dents, not just some.

“I had the opportunity,earlier this year, to meet witha number of millennials, theyoung Hispanic millennials,through the cooperation ofEsperanza, said Budish.“Young people are tellingus that they want to see anenhanced ability to attractmore and to retain youngentrepreneurs and youngbusiness people.”

Mr. Feliciano questionedthe two leaders on their com-mitment to secure more ex-ecutive leadership from theHispanic community. Jack-son pointed out the search

for a new Cleveland PublicSchools board member—anda concerted effort to ensurethat appointee is Hispanic.

“It’s not just a conversa-tion of what should be, it’s theactual execution to make itso,” he said.

Mr. Feliciano also recog-nized the attendance and par-ticipation of Cleveland FireChief Angelo Calvillo, whoseparents immigrated to theUnited States from México.

County Executive Budishpointed to an inclusion studyalready underway when hetook office that looked at thecounty’s contracting and pro-curement practices. He admit-ted that recently-released re-sults showed racial dispari-ties in those opportunities.

“We’re not doing well as acounty to make sure every-body is able to participate,”Budish said, while stating hehas started a “robust” set ofinitiatives as a result. “I be-lieve we’re on the right roadto change that.”

He pointed out CuyahogaCounty has changed its re-porting requirements for di-versity in the workforce ofcontractors, eliminated thebonding requirement forsmall minority contractors,and started an inclusion of-fice to enforce those require-ments, hiring a Hispanic tolead that effort.

Attendees to the triennialgathering also broke off intosubcommittees to chart thecourse of the Hispanic agendain Greater Cleveland. The His-panic Roundtable and affili-ated groups will pursue highervoter turnout, getting moreLatinos appointed and electedto public office and high-pro-file government positions, andcontinuing to work on highschool and college graduationrates among Latino youth.

Editor’s Note: Accordingto attorney Feliciano, “Theoverall goal of ConvenciónHispana 2016 is to transform,inspire, and empower the His-panic community to becomean independent, thriving, andself relying community in thegreater Cleveland area, if notthe entirety of the state.

“We take very seriouslyour Motto: ¿’Si no tú, quién?Si no ahora, cuándo’”?

“... does he care or does hedrink it up like sunlight?”

“... the propaganda wallof my tie-dyed mind wasawake again.”

“Very nice words, inter-esting words,” he noted.“Word curiosity has a majorplace in poetry. I get wordsfrom old Popular Sciencemagazines and from booksabout ancient things, likeChinese lattices.”

He encouraged the stu-dents to write as fast as theycould, even to make upwords, to delve into theircreative wells. Indiana Uni-versity poetry students hadbeen visiting the high schoolstudents’ classrooms forweeks in advance, gettingthem familiar with and com-fortable composing poemsof all sorts.

LARAMIE, Wyo., Oct. 5,2016 (AP): A small but grow-ing University of Wyomingprogram is taking undergradu-ate learning outside of theclassroom to increase stu-dents’ understanding of aparticular culture on local andglobal levels.

As UW undergraduate stu-dents file into Room 255 atthe Laramie Plains CivicCenter, their heads all turn tothe brightly colored, three-paneled mural that spans al-most the entire width of thewall. Clustered depictions ofLatinos from the history ofAlbany County, Wyoming,and the nation comprise themural that adorns of the wallof the bilingual radio stationKOCA 93.5. The studentswere stepping off the UWcampus for the morning toengage in an interactive vi-sual learning assignment, re-ported the Laramie Boomer-ang (http://bit.ly/2dqp7dz).

Cecilia Aragón, UW asso-ciate professor and directorof the Latina and Latino stud-ies program, said the idea ofthe exercise is to help thestudents intimately under-stand Latino culture and therole is has and does play inWyoming.

“We fear what we don’tknow,” Ms. Aragón said.“This will give the studentsthe cultural competency of adifferent culture outside ofthe dominant, mainstreamAnglo culture in Wyoming.”

The mural, Walls thatSpeak, was painted byLaramie native SteveonLucero and illustrates thehistory of Latino communi-ties and leaders inWyoming’s history. Someof the depictions are of non-specific unidentified char-acters, such as agriculturalworkers, while others are ofspecific individuals, includ-ing Albany County ClerkJackie Gonzáles.

Dr. Aragón said the mu-ral is a “prime resource” foranyone doing research onLatinos and Latinas in theRocky Mountain Region.With a fast-growing popu-lation in Wyoming, Aragónsaid it’s important to em-phasize the role art plays inthat culture, which is thereason for the visual art por-tion of the first-year semi-nar course, Latino PopularCulture.

“It becomes really im-portant for students to seeLatinos represented in a dif-ferent form,” she said. “It’snot just about reading abook or another document,because this is actually see-ing a narrative in visualform.”

There are about 20 stu-dents enrolled in Dr.Aragón’s seminar courseand approximately 15 in theLatina/o Studies program.But as she enters her 13thyear as the program’s direc-tor, Ms. Aragón said it’s

growing in numbers.“I keep meeting with stu-

dents every day who arewanting to become part ofthis program,” she said.

The program focuses onLatino culture through astudy of humanities, arts andsocial science, Aragón said.

In addition to informingstudents about an under-ap-preciated part of Wyoming’shistory, Ms. Aragón said shethinks the program helps stu-dents of all backgroundsidentify with Latino culture,making for more whole-rounded graduates, andstudying the arts is an effec-tive way of tapping into thatunderstanding.

“It’s about understandingwhat the human spirit isabout,” she said. “It’s aboutdeveloping compassion forothers who are different andhave differences instead ofbecoming a divisive society.Instead of engaging in divi-sive politics, I’m hoping thisteaches our young peoplehow to practice compas-sion.”

Tumasie Hellebuick isoriginally from California,but came from Salt Lake Cityto attend UW. Before mak-ing the decision to attendclasses at UW, the College ofBusiness major said he wasn’taware there was a Latino stud-ies program. Knowing theuniversity is experiencingbudget cuts, Hellebuick saidhe was hesitant to come to

UW because he feared pro-grams focusing on culturaldiversity would be on thechopping block. Today,Hellebuick is studying forhis minor in Latina/o Stud-ies.

“I think that this class isimportant because it helpsbring back up how diversityis important to the state ofWyoming,” he said.

Hailing from Gillette,Erica Rives is an ElementaryEducation major and hopesto teach in a dual immersionsetting. She said the course isan opportunity to engagewith her cultural background.

“I wanted to learn moreabout Latino culture because,in my town, it’s very smalland they really don’t teachus a lot about our past, ofLatinos in Wyoming,” Rivessaid. “This class opened myeyes to Wyoming having alot of Latino culture and howit’s still growing.”

Rives said she thinks thereare people in Wyoming whocould stand to benefit fromlearning about Latinos in away that visually connectsthem to the culture, as dis-played in the mural.

“There are people whodon’t know about Latinos;how much we struggled andwent there to get where weare now,” Rives said. “I re-ally liked how they ex-pressed a lot of our culture init, like the baptism and firstcommunion. It was cool to

see they have VicenteFernández—a really awe-some musician—it just fo-cuses on everything inLatino culture. ... It brings arealistic view where you’reactually living it by seeingthe pictures and imaginingyourself being there.”

Jackson native LauraPérez, a Psychology majorwith a minor in Spanish, saidthe visual element added in-trigue to the subject mattera textbook likely couldn’tprovide.

“You can see the historyright there rather than read-ing from a textbook—read-ing from a textbook is kindof boring,” Pérez said.

Though several ofAragón’s students do have aLatino background, she saidher students for the courseare predominantly Anglo.This semester, two of thoseAnglo students are BenNathan and Talmage Peden.Both spent time in CentralAmerica while performingmissions for the Church ofJesus Christ of Latter-daySaints.

Nathan said he didn’teven anticipate he wouldlearn to speak Spanish, im-peding his ability to relateto people in a foreign coun-try. But during the time, hesaid his experience taughthim people are people.

“After maybe twomonths, people would say,‘You’re a cool gringo,

Latino Studies teaches beyond the textbook, classroomBy JOEL FUNK, Laramie Boomerang

you’re just like a Latino;even though you’re white,you act just like we do,”’Nathan said.

During his mission,Peden became engaged to aPeruvian woman, which ledin part to his interest in thecourse. While learningabout his fiancée’s culturalbackground, Peden said vi-sual learning elements suchas the mural enhanced hisunderstanding of thestruggles minorities can facein Wyoming and the U.S.With many of the charactersrepresenting real WyomingLatinos, he said it was easierto identify with the human-ity of their experiences.

“It does help to visual-ize, because it’s not just ageneral representation,” hesaid. “There are names to thefaces that contributed to theLatino culture and commu-nity.”

Given the current politi-cal and social climate in theU.S., Aragón said she thinksdiversity education is moreimportant than ever.

“The demographics of theU.S. are changing rapidly,and can just see our presi-dential candidates are pan-dering to a diverse group ofpeople,” she said. “Diver-sity is very, very importantto the changing demograph-ics of the U.S.”

Dave Zenk, Interim Director

WASHINGTON, DC, Oct.6, 2016 (AP): Seven years agothis week, when a young U.S.president learned he’d beenawarded the Nobel Peace Prizebarely nine months into hisfirst term—arguably beforehe’d made any peace—a some-what embarrassed BarackObama asked his aides to writean acceptance speech that ad-dressed the awkwardness of theaward.

But by the time hisspeechwriters delivered a draft,Obama’s focus had shifted toanother source of tension in hisupcoming moment in Oslo: Hewould deliver this speech aboutpeace just days after he plannedto order 30,000 more U.S. troopsinto battle in Afghanistan.

The president all butscrapped the draft and wrotehis own version.

The speech Obama deliv-ered—a Nobel Peace Prize lec-ture about the necessity of wag-ing war—now looks like anearly sign that the Americanpresident would not be the sortof peacemaker the Europeanintellectuals of the Nobel com-mittee had anticipated.

On matters of war and peace,Obama has proven to be a con-founding and contradictoryfigure, one who stands to leavebehind both devastating andpressing failures, as well as a setof fresh accomplishmentswhose impact could resonatefor decades.

He is the erstwhile anti-warcandidate, now engaged inmore theaters of war than hispredecessor. He is the com-mander-in-chief who pulledmore than a hundred thousandU.S. troops out of harm’s way inIraq, but also began a slowtrickle back in. He recoiledagainst full-scale, conven-tional war, while embracing thebrave new world of drone at-tacks and proxy battles. He haschampioned diplomacy on cli-mate change and nuclear pro-liferation and has torn downwalls to Cuba and Myanmar,but also has failed repeatedlyto broker a lasting pause tomore than six years of slaugh-ter in Syria.

If there was consensusObama had not yet earned hisNobel Peace Prize when hereceived it in 2009, there’slittle such agreement onwhether he deserves it today.

“I don’t think he wouldhave been in the speculationof the Nobel committee now,in 2016, even if he had notalready won,” said KristianBerg Harpviken, director ofthe Peace Research Instituteof Oslo, and a close watcher ofthe Nobel committee.Harpviken said he viewsObama’s foreign policy asmore conventional and lim-ited than he expected, particu-larly when it comes to usingmultilateral cooperation andinstitutions.

When it comes to findingnew instruments for peace, hesaid, “Obama has been stuckin the old paradigm.”

In many respects, Obama’stenure has been a seven-yeardebate over whether the presi-dent has used the tools of warto try to make peace too muchor little.

Obama has been sharplycriticized for his refusal to useforce to depose Syrian Presi-dent Bashar Assad, cripple hisair force or more aggressivelyengage in diplomatic effortsto end the fighting. Many viewObama’s policies as an unfor-tunate overcorrection from theGeorge W. Bush-era Iraq war.

“The president correctlywanted to move away from themaximalist approach of theprevious administration, butin doing so he went to aminimalist, gradualist andproxy approach that is pro-longing the war. Where is thejustice in that?” said Ret. Lt.Gen. Jim Dubik, a senior fel-low at the Institute for the Studyof War and the author of thebook, “Just War Reconsider.”Obama should have workedharder to rally a coalitionaround a shared vision of astable Middle East, he said.

“Part of the requirement ofleadership,” Dubik said, “is tooperate in that space betweenwhere the world is and wherethe world ought to go.”

The president’s advisersdismiss such critiques as amisguided presumption thatmore force yields more peace.Cold-eyed assessments of theoptions in Syria show no cer-tainty of outcomes.

“In Syria, there is no inter-national basis to go to waragainst the Assad regime. Simi-larly, there’s no clearlyarticulable objective as to howit would play out. What is theend that we’re seeking mili-tarily? “ said deputy nationalsecurity adviser Ben Rhodes.“The president doesn’t be-lieve you can impose orderthrough military force alone.”

But Obama has in manyother cases been willing to uselimited force to achieve lim-ited objectives, even riskingunintended consequences.

He has ordered dronestrikes in Pakistan, Yemen,Libya, Somalia and Syria, ac-tions that that have killed ci-vilians and sparked tension inthose countries and across theinternational community.What began as a secret pro-gram has become more trans-parent and Obama has aimedto leave legal limits for hispredecessor on the use of un-manned warplanes.

But he has left unansweredthe question of how or whenthose actions will lead topeace, some argued.

Looking back on his Nobelspeech, that dilemma was al-ready there, said Jon Alterman,a Middle East expert andformer State Department offi-cial.

“What’s strikes me most ishow different our concept ofwar was seven years ago,” hesaid. “We are engaged in awhole series of infinitely sus-tainable, low-level actionsthat have no logical endpoint.When do we stop doing droneattacks in Yemen and Paki-stan? What level of terrorismis acceptable? ... We’re en-gaged in battles with a wholerange of groups that are nevergoing to surrender, so how doyou decide to stop it? How doyou decide what winninglooks like?”
