This is the perfect time to preorder your favorites, or you can place your library holds now to make sure you’re at the top of the list.

The Best New Books to Celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month 

Hispanic Heritage Month is celebrated from September 15 to October 15 and focuses on Americans with ties to the Caribbean, Spain, Mexico, and Central and South America. I love that we designate time to learn about our Latine homies, but when I tell you how ridiculous it is that the majority of schools in the U.S. teach virtually nothing about the contributions of non-white people to the nation’s history—it’s beyond ridiculous, even. The more I learn about American history that involves BIPOC people positively, the more it’s clear how intentional the exclusion is. Which is, of course, why Heritage Month exists.

They’re reaching into our history to highlight the roots of our current issues, as well as solutions and community-based ideas to inspire our future. This is where to get started with today’s best cli-fi authors.
