Aunque nosotros los latinos no limitamos nuestras celebraciones a d\u00edas especiales, aprovechamos cada oportunidad que tenemos para celebrar. Siento orgullo poder celebrar nuestra cultura, nuestros \u00e9xitos y nuestra historia con toda la comunidad latina y con la comunidad de Filadelfia en general. Tenemos mucho para celebrar.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">En el poema, \u201cLa mancha de pl\u00e1tano, el poeta puertorrique\u00f1o, Luis Llorens Torres se refiere a esa cosa de nuestra herencia que ni el jab\u00f3n no las quita de encima. As\u00ed como la mancha del pl\u00e1tano, tenemos esas cosas culturales que por mas que uno trate, nadie no las puede quitar. Ni deben intentarlo. Poder ser quienes somos de forma autentica es necesario para nuestro bienestar. Nuestra musica es musica de alegr\u00eda. Nuestra comida fortalece el alma. Nuestra historia esta repleta de \u00e9xitos. Nuestro idioma acaricia el coraz\u00f3n.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Para el Latino que es reci\u00e9n llegado a este pa\u00eds tal como el que naci\u00f3 aqu\u00ed, a veces buscamos forma de quitarnos la mancha del pl\u00e1tano para poder asimilarnos. Desafortunadamente, nos olvidamos de esas cosas que nos hacen ser \u00fanico y son esas cosas nos da la fortaleza para seguir en adelante. Esas cosas nos da animo para pedir ayuda cuando en verdad la necesitamos.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Un ejemplo de esas que nos da fortaleza es la sabidur\u00eda de nuestras abuelitas. En cualquier momento sabemos que podemos acudir a nuestras abuelitas o alg\u00fan familiar para recibir amor, apoyo y consejos. Otro ejemplo es nuestra fe en un poder mas grande que nosotros mismos. Sabiendo qu\u00e9 hay un poder vigil\u00e1ndonos y protegi\u00e9ndonos nos anima para seguir en adelante.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tenemos mucho en nuestra cultura que nos prepara para esos momentos dif\u00edciles que inevitablemente vamos a tener. Y cuando lleguen esos momentos estamos preparados para enfrentarlos o conseguir ayuda. Ayuda de nuestras abuelitas sabias, ayuda de nuestras familias, ayuda de ese gran poder y a veces ayuda profesional. Somos fuertes pero somos seres humanos y cuando necesitamos ayuda, sabemos d\u00f3nde acudir.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>Eduardo Collazo es Director de Asuntos Comunitarios para DBHIDS.

Our Strength<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hispanic Heritage Month in the United States is celebrated from Sept. 15 to Oct. 15. But we in the Latin-American community don&#8217;t limit when we celebrate only to specific days \u2013 we take every opportunity to celebrate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I am proud to celebrate our culture, our successes, and our history with all of my Latin American community as well as all of Philadelphia. We have much to celebrate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the poem, &#8220;La Mancha del Platano,&#8221; Puerto Rican poet Luis Llorens Torres makes reference to those parts of our culture that are so much a part of us that even soap can not wash them away. As with the stain of the green plantain peel, there are things in our culture that cannot be washed away no matter how hard anyone tries. And no one should ever try. To be our authentic selves is critical to our well being. Our music is music of joy. Our food fortifies our soul. Our history is replete with stories of triumphs. Our language caresses the heart.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For the Latin American who is a recent arrival to this country \u2013 as with the one who was born here \u2013 we sometimes seek ways to remove the stain of the green plantain in order to fit in. Unfortunately, we forget that those things make us unique and give us strength to move forward. They give us the strength to reach out for help when we most need it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An example of something in our culture that strengthens us is the wisdom of our <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">abuelitas<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, our\u00a0 grandmothers. At any time, we know we can look to our abuelitas or our family for love, support, and wise advice. Another example is our faith in a higher power that watches and protects us, gives us impetus to continue on.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is much in our culture that prepares us for moments that are difficult and inevitable. When those moments come, we are prepared to take them on or to seek support. Support from our abuelitas. Support from family. Support from that higher power. And at times, support from professional helpers. We are strong, but we are also human. And when we need help, we know where to go.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">About the Author: Eduardo Collazo is director of Community Affairs at the City of Philadelphia Department of Behavioral Health and Intellectual disAbility Services (DBHIDS).
