\u201cA Day Without a Mexican\u201d came out in 2004, and Jason Daniel-Ulloa says its message holds true to this day. In the movie, a mysterious fog surrounds California, and all the Mexicans disappear, affecting daily life and the state economy. Farm produce goes unpicked, cars are abandoned on the street, and business owners are missing. As the summary on Imdb.com<\/a> says, \u201cEven the border guards grieve.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We all need to see that, said Daniel-Ulloa, assistant teaching professor in UW Bothell\u2019s School of Nursing & Health Studies<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhat would this country be without Latinos, Native Americans, African Americans, Asians? Where would we be?\u201d he asked. \u201cSo much of this country would not be the same, if it wasn\u2019t for us and the people like us.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

National Hispanic Heritage Month<\/a>, Sept. 15-Oct. 15, is a good time to reflect on those questions. The Library of Congress, National Archives, National Endowment for the Humanities and other organizations sponsor the observance \u201cto pay tribute to the generations of Hispanic Americans who have positively influenced and enriched our nation and society.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ethnicity, class intersect <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Working at UW Bothell for just one pandemic-interrupted year so far, Daniel-Ulloa has taught Introduction to Public Health, Social Determinants of Health and Program Evaluation in Public Health. Previously at the University of Iowa, he had research interests in Latino health and men\u2019s health at the intersection of gender, ethnicity and class in the United States. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before the coronavirus disrupted UW Bothell operations, Daniel-Ulloa had been talking with the Student Diversity Center about forming a men of color group for students. He has also been talking with the Latino Education Training Institute<\/a>, a nonprofit University partner in Lynnwood, Washington, about plans for promoting health among Latino men. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The coronavirus itself is an example of how ethnic groups are scapegoated in the popular narrative, he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe tend to blame people as opposed to conditions when it comes to these things. When COVID broke out, who did we blame? China \u2014 the Chinese! As if it had nothing to do with our total lack of preparation, lack of leadership and the gutting of public health infrastructure,\u201d Daniel-Ulloa said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the coronavirus spread in meatpacking plants, some people blamed Latino workers, unfairly making them the ethnic scapegoats, he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The hot spots were largely an issue of plant operations and the physical conditions under which the employees were working. \u201cPoverty also makes people vulnerable to disease, not their ethnicity or their race,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSo, we\u2019re seeing these narratives keep coming up, and we have to have a counter-narrative,\u201d Daniel-Ulloa said. \u201cHispanic Heritage Month is a little bit about that.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The counter-narrative <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Latinos are underrepresented not only in science and academia but also in Hollywood, literature and the other arts, he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt isn\u2019t that nobody is telling our stories; there are quite a few Latino artists. It\u2019s that they don\u2019t get broader nationwide or mainstream attention. It is hard to find those stories,\u201d Daniel-Ulloa said. \u201cWe need to remind ourselves, whether it\u2019s Black History Month or Latino History Month, that this is needed because we are typically forgotten in the narrative.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s particularly important right now to think about what Latinos have brought to the country, he added, given the rise in fear-mongering around immigration and migrant workers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAcknowledging the contributions \u2014 artistic and scientific \u2014 of Latinos in the United States is more important than it ever has been before.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
