55 million strong yet absent in key debates of our time. While other minority groups have at least one strong leader that represents the community as a whole, Latinos lack such leadership. In this session, a group of panelists will take a critical look at the Latino Brand and address viable options on how to resolve the lack of leadership, attempting to identify the next Cesar Chavez. Time for Q&A will be set aside at the end of the session.
