Professor Tanya Katerí Hernández wrote an op-ed for theGrio discussing the need for data that can measure the existence of racial disparities amongst Latinos, including Afro–Latinos, following an Office of Management and Budget proposal that considers reformatting the question asking for a person’s race or ethnicity on forms for the 2030 census and federal government surveys and to collapse Latino/Hispanic ethnic identity into the list of racial categories with Black. She also joined Dr. Nancy López, professor of sociology and director and co-founder of the Institute for Study of “Race” & Social Justice at the University of New Mexico, to speak with theGrio‘s Marc Lamont Hill.
