The Hispanic Heritage Collection features thousands of public radio and television programs from the 1960s to the present day. These programs highlight the cultures of diverse Hispanic communities in the United States, originating from Mexico, Puerto Rico, El Salvador, Cuba, and other countries in Central and South America. The collection also includes content from Spanish-speaking areas around the world, including territories that became part of the U.S. following the Mexican-American War of 1846-1848. Subjects include cultures, histories, artistic endeavors, immigration experiences and issues, civil rights, workers’ rights, and bilingual education. | ||
|
||
Beginning in the late 1960s, Latino activists associated with farmworker, Chicano, and Puerto Rican movements spearheaded drives to establish bilingual community radio stations in rural locales and television programming in urban centers to address the diverse lives of Spanish-language speakers. The Hispanic Heritage Collection contains many programs associated with these movements, including nearly 10,000 radio broadcasts from [Radio Bilingüe](/catalog?f%5Baccess_types%5D%5B%5D=digitized&f%5Bcontributing_organizations%5D%5B%5D=Radio+Bilingue+%28CA%29&sort=asset_date+asc) and [KDNA](/special_collections/radio-kdna) in Washington State’s Yakima Valley, and pioneering television programs like the children’s series [*Carrascolendas*](/catalog?f%5Baccess_types%5D%5B%5D=digitized&f%5Bseries_titles%5D%5B%5D=Carrascolendas&sort=asset_date+asc), from Austin, Texas, [*Acción Chicano*](/catalog?f%5Baccess_types%5D%5B%5D=digitized&f%5Bseries_titles%5D%5B%5D=Accion+Chicano&sort=title+asc) from Los Angeles, [*Realidades*](/catalog?f%5Baccess_types%5D%5B%5D=digitized&f%5Bseries_titles%5D%5B%5D=Realidades&sort=asset_date+asc) from New York, the Emmy-winning [*Images/Imagenes*](/catalog?f%5Baccess_types%5D%5B%5D=digitized&f%5Bseries_titles%5D%5B%5D=Images%2FImagenes&sort=asset_date+asc) from the New Jersey Network, WGBH’s [*La Plaza*](/catalog?f%5Baccess_types%5D%5B%5D=digitized&f%5Bseries_titles%5D%5B%5D=La+Plaza&sort=asset_date+asc), and [*En Camino*](/catalog?f%5Bseries_titles%5D%5B%5D=En+Camino&per_page=100&sort=asset_date+asc&f%5baccess_types%5d%5b%5d=digitized) from KRCB in Rohnert Park, California, among others. | ||
|

The collection includes many noteworthy documentaries. [*Mi Puerto Rico*](/catalog/cpb-aacip-526-gt5fb4xr26), written, produced, and narrated by veteran public television producer and director Raquel Ortiz, offers audiences a comprehensive view of Puerto Rican political perspectives and cultural traditions through interviews with historians, eyewitnesses, and contemporary political figures. Two historical documentaries of interest, [*Valentía: Mexican Americans in World War II*](/catalog/cpb-aacip-86-4947ddrj) and [*Los Braceros: Strong Arms to Aid the USA*](/catalog/cpb-aacip_86-50gthzqh), come from KVIE, located in Sacramento, California. [*A Thirst in the Garden*](/catalog/cpb-aacip-526-p843r0r27w) from KERA-TV in Dallas, winner of a prestigious Peabody Award, documents horrendous health conditions of Mexican American farmworkers in Texas’s Rio Grande Valley. National Educational Television, the precursor to PBS, in the 1960s broadcast [*Huelga!*](/catalog/cpb-aacip-504-696zw19w66) on the farmworkers’ grape strike in Delano, California, during which the United Farm Workers was formed, and [*Mexican Americans: The Invisible Minority*](/catalog/cpb-aacip-516-sb3ws8jm5c?proxy_start_time=3076.4). | ||

## Background | ||
|
||
### English | ||
|
||
Each year, Americans observe National Hispanic Heritage Month from September 15 to October 15, celebrating the histories, cultures, and contributions of American citizens whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central and South America. This observation began in 1968 as Hispanic Heritage Week under President Lyndon Johnson. In 1988, President Ronald Reagan expanded it to cover a 30-day period starting on September 15 and ending on October 15, and it was enacted into law on August 17 of that year. | ||
|
||
During National Hispanic Heritage Month, cultural institutions across the nation highlight materials in their collections that are relevant to Hispanic culture and life in America. The AAPB’s Hispanic Heritage Collection offers public television and radio programs in Spanish and English contributed by stations and organizations nationwide, many of which are available online. Additional materials can be accessed at the Library of Congress and WGBH. | ||
