The Mayans so highly valued cacao beans that it was used as a form of currency (Medicine Hunter). Locals could even pay their taxes with cacao beans. But it was Spanish and Portuguese conquistadors that expanded the cacao economy. Christopher Columbus and his crew were the first Europeans to encounter cacao.…

Since there is a need for large areas of land to grow cocoa beans, farmers need to get rid of all the other plants in the way.

Despite Hispanics being the largest minority group in the Unites States, issues plaguing Hispanic communities far too often do not get much attention in the academia. And although environmental injustices affect the general minority population, Hispanic communities are further disadvantaged because their cries for help are repeatedly silenced by either language barriers, deportations fears, or just an overall of lack awareness. Unfortunately, there is an obvious gap between environmentalist activist and the communities that they themselves want to help. This is because mainstream environmentalism 's perception of diversity has a predominant focus on Black communities.…

The Hispanic population will develop much faster then any other ethnicity group in the United States, and Hispanic shoppers will speak to an expanding rate of the American buyer base.

I am very interested in the Hispanic cultural. I have put a lot into getting to know this culture by visiting the Niagara cafe and talking to my friend Hugo who I have interviewed for this paper. He identifies as Mexican American, and is “hispanish and Latino” he says. This means he is ethnically and racially part of the Hispanic Community. “Only about 25 percent of Hispanic Americans use Hispanic or Latino to describe themselves” (page 217).…

I grew up in a household filled with Hispanic influences, telenovelas in the evening, rice and bistec for dinner and an old towel on the end of a stick to mop the floor. As a child, I was always extremely proud of my heritage despite being considered a “Gringa” among family and close friends. My interests to be a liaison between Latin America and the rest of the world as a foreign correspondent not only come from familial ties but also a sense of purpose. Just because all Hispanics speak Spanish doesn’t mean each experience is the same. Although the struggles among countries may be similar, each country has a different history along with the reasons why families decide to leave or stay.…
Families exist in a larger complex made up of a community of kinship network and friends that make up their beliefs and values practices that are defined within the family (lynch 43). These beliefs and values are based on culture, which is comprised of the different languages spoken, as behaviors that influence each individual’s way of thinking, feeling, and interacting (28). The two cultures I decided to observe was that of the Hispanic/Latino and African American, each culture offers many differences in terms of values, communication, and religious beliefs. The Hispanic/Latino groups are comprised of many ethnic groups such as native people, African, European, and Asian heritage (25).…
The group I chose to research was the Hispanic culture. I do not know much about the Hispanic culture nor have had much experience working with this culture. Sometimes it can be hard to work with or surround yourself with people when your cultures are not the same, therefore getting to better know the values and customs of a Hispanic will help me to make sure my clients get the most from me Knowing more about the people that I am dealing with is the best way to ensure a good client to counselor relationship. The Hispanic culture is one of the fastest growing cultural groups in the United States. The U.S. Census data indicates that Hispanics will be the largest minority group by the year 2050 (U.S. Bureau of the Census, 1992).…
