One of the Good Ones: First and Second-generation Latinos Walk Between Two Worlds

In collaboration with Curious Theatre, Denver Public Library will be celebrating the opening of One of the Good Ones and Denver area Latinos. Following a scene from Curious Theatre’s production, a panel of past Latino Community Services Award recipients will be part of a guided discussion on how first-generation Latinos are often deeply rooted in their specific country of origin, holding direct memories and customs from Latin America, while the second-generation walk between two worlds, balancing their parents' traditional values with U.S. mainstream culture, often identifying strongly as American alongside their heritage. Audience Q&A will follow. Moderator: Fabiola Mora, Inclusion, Diversity, Equity & Accessibility Director/DPL Panelists: Olga González, Chief Executive Officer, Directora Ejecutiva, Cultivando; Jesse Ogas, Executive Director of Social Responsibility and Community Affairs, 9News; GerRee Hinshaw, Director, One of the Good Ones , Curious Theatre If you are not able to attend in person, join us online on: https://www.youtube.com/@denverlibrary Join us for an evening of entertainment and community!
