<strong>The idea for Latino Heritage Month celebrated throughout the latter half of September and the first half of October began as a way to promote the history, culture, and contributions of Latino-Americans. Specifically — those whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central and South America.</strong><br />

To me being Afro-Latina means proving others wrong. It means being knowledgeable and proud of your heritage, and not denying your roots when brought up in conversation. My experience being Afro-Dominican is the familiar look of surprise when I say “tenga un buen día” with a smile, after overhearing people talk about me in Spanish. It means having to deal with the looks of disbelief when you say “Soy Dominicana” and they still question after explaining what cities my parents were born in."</div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I am Gabriela Elyssa Montini, a proud Afro-Latina. Both of my parents were born in Panama and came to the United States for more opportunities. Although I was raised in California, I stay close to my Panamanian roots and culture. I stay involved through visiting Panama often, dancing Panama's folkloric and traditional dances, and being the former queen of The House of Panama. I've always loved the spotlight and being the center of attention, so reigning as the queen of The House of Panama was a great experience. This opportunity even helped me with pursuing my modeling career.</span></div>

"I used to feel as though if I identified as black, I wasn’t claiming my Latina identity. I wasn’t accounting for my love of sancocho or my natural rhythm for bachata. I felt as though I was claiming to be someone who I wasn’t. Now that I’m older and truly understand the difference between race and ethnicity, I can truly own who I am. I’m grateful for the opportunity to represent my darker skinned Latina ladies with kinkier hair. No, we aren’t always mixed. No, we aren’t always African-American. We are simply black Dominicans. Black Puerto-Ricans. Black Colombians. Black Panamanians." </div>
