Hispanic American Heritage Month at The National Archives

The National Archives will celebrate Hispanic American Heritage Month - which begins on September 15 - with special films, programs, and lectures. These events are free and open to the general public, and will be held at the National Archives Building in Washington, D.C.

Some things I've found specially interesting:

New Thinking on Lincoln's Legacy: Hispanic Perspectives
Tuesday, September 18, at noon, William G. McGowan Theater
Abraham Lincoln's 200th birthday is in 2009. Does his legacy have resonance within Hispanic communities?

mexican border Crossings
Thursday, September 13, at 11 a.m., Room G-24, Research Center
National Archives staff archivist Claire Kluskens will discuss Mexican border crossing records that document the arrival of permanent and temporary immigrants to the United States at the U.S.-Mexico border.

Hispanic-Related Films from the National Archives
Friday, September 21, at 11 a.m., Room G-24, Research Center
National Archives staff present and discuss a variety of film clips illustrating Hispanic population, culture, activities, and families in the early to mid-20th century.
