These 12 editable Google Slides with accompanying script and video are the perfect way to educate any audience about Hispanic Heritage Month!

Perfect for both the classroom or an assembly, these slides & script will walk you through how to present confidently about the history of Hispanic Heritage Month, Spanish influence on the Americas, the meaning of the terms Hispanic, Latino, and Spanish, and the purpose of Hispanic Heritage Month.

America Ferrera's TED Talk entitled,My Identity is a Superpower, Not an Obstacle is also included in the presentation during which she describes her experiences as a Latina woman fighting to access opportunity within the TV and film industry.

The presentation runs 25-30 minutes with the video and around 10-15 minutes if you choose to just run through the presentation & provided script on their own.

Ending with one of my favorite quotes by Marian Wright Edelman, "You can't be what you can't see," these resources invite your audience to see celebratory months like Hispanic Heritage as more than just a date on a calendar, but rather an opportunity to give space to communities from which it has been historically withheld.

Editable to suit any audience, you can take this presentation in any direction you like from a more historical perspective, to a cultural celebration, or even a reflection on how different identities are viewed and often stereotyped in American culture.
