Did you know that if the purchasing power of all U.S Latinos were put together, it would represent the 5th largest economy in the world?

Guest speakers include:
David Hernandez, President LLEGO Boston, Peggy Pratt, National Board Member, NAHREP, Maribel Carvajal, founder of Hispana Amigas en Massachusetts, and Sandra Aleman Nijjar, founder of the East Boston Community Soup Kitchen.

Held each month at GBH’s studio at the Boston Public Library, GBH Amplifies events feature a cast of rotating hosts from local media, community organizations, and more.
