HolaHolaHola Beautifuls!

When BB asked the editor what she should write about for this issue, he suggested “Unity”. Quee?? Surprised that topics don’t just slide for Babushka? BB not have something to decir? JU SO FONII!! Soy una Abuela Cubana, of course the topics are forever forthcoming, pero not necesariamente what is in the tema of the month, so one asks. Continuing.

Unity. Wow and Woah. That’s a heck of a topic. So many subsets de eso. Do we categorize by age, sex, politica, religous beliefs? Again, so many ways to go on this. Empezamos with the definition.

u·ni·ty

noun

1.  The state of being united or joined as a whole.

2.  MATHEMATICS the number one.

This definition serves us in both ways. For this article we celebrate the Unity of Hispanos. In particular, Latinos in the United States, of which there are now over 60 million. Again, Wow and Woah. There are 20 official Hispanic countries, all of which are very well represented in the US.  Our common bond- language and pride of our heritage.  Hopefully also a common bond is gratitude to this country, for el chance to be part of its present and future historia. Just as we’ve been our part of its’ pasado. Because make no mistake and never doubt it Beautifuls, Hispanos/Latinos have been a part del país before it was even officially a país. The proof is in history, in geographic names, in animals and comidas, here long before this land was even an Anglo colony. An important part of our Unity should be this, this rememberance of the past.  It gives us the self-knowing of belonging, arms us with la verdad of our part here and the worth we have compartido for generations. Los nacidos aqui know their rights, y los otros hoping for theirs. This is a great country, and it is part of us and in turn, we, a part of US.

In Unity we will embark on mucho and embrace it all. The Estados Unidos, Estamos Unidos. Y estamos aquí y parte de ti pa’siempre.

Babushka Besos a todos. Cuídense.
