Book Description: Did you know that the most popular name for boys born in both California and Texas was Jos? Or that tacos have nearly replaced hamburgers as the most popular American fast food? More and more, the tastes and flavors of Hispanic Americans are playing a growing role in America's culture. According to U.S. Census Bureau predictions, Latinos will supply two thirds of the population growth in the United States for the first half of the twenty first century. At this rate, Latinos will number 80 million by the year 2050. The Census Bureau estimates that the Hispanic population will increase by 194 percent. Already, Latinos have made a significant impact on the broader American culture. Saucy Latin rhythms can be heard every hour on pop radio stations. Moviegoers flock to see Latinas and Latinos on the silver screen. Cinco de Mayo and Dia de los Muertos join Saint Patrick's Day on city holiday calendars. These are just a few of the facts and figures that illustrate a nationwide trend: Hispanic Americans are enriching American culture at many levels. This book will explain some of the history behind this trend and allow you a glimpse of all that Latinos have to offer to the United States.
