No Latino Employers?

Share

I must take exception to the quote attributed to Raul Yzaguirre, president of the National Council of La Raza (“Latino Awards Battle Stereotypes,” by Yvette C. Doss, June 4). Although he is concerned that U.S. Latinos suffer from negative stereotypes, he is quoted as saying “ . . . it behooves Joe Average to know the Hispanic community because we are going to be your neighbor, your employee, your customer.”

Surely Yzaguirre must also have mentioned the word “employer.”
