The Latino population in the United States increased by over 50% between 1990 and 2000 according to Census data. There are various terms used to describe Latinos depending on factors like location, politics, economics, and gender. The largest Latino populations are found in areas like New York, Chicago, the Southeast, Texas, and along the Southwest border with Mexico. Latinos in the US can trace their roots to Mexico, Puerto Rico, Cuba, and other Latin American countries. Events like Posadas and sharing cultural activities help bring Latinos and other groups together in Iowa and promote diversity.

Latinos/Hispanics in the U.S.
By the numbers:
Approximately 56.6 Million as of July 1, 2015. (about 18% of the U.S. population & constantly
growing.) (U.S. Census Bureau)
65% are of Mexican background, 9% Puerto Rican, 3.5% Cuban. The rest are grouped as ‘other’
including the Caribbean people, South Americans, and Central Americans (Pew Research Center).
Of the 15+ million of undocumented immigrants in the U.S. approximately 10 million are Hispanic
immigrants of which 7 million are of Mexican nationality (Pew Research Center).
More than half of the Latino/Hispanic American population resides in these three states: California,
Texas, and Florida.
“California had the largest Hispanic population of any state (15.2 million) in 2015. Texas had the largest
numeric increase within the Hispanic population since July 1, 2014. New Mexico had the highest
percentage of Hispanics at 48.0 percent” (U.S. Census Bureau).
Stewart County in southwest Georgia experienced the most growth in the Hispanic population since
2000, growing 1,754% over 13 years (Pew Research Center).
Latino vs. Hispanics
Latino vs. Hispanic: The Terminology Conflict
What is “Latino?” A Latino is someone from Latin America.
What is “Hispanic?” A Hispanic is an “Hispano parlante” which translates into a Spanish-speaking
individual.
Why both terms? Both terms are used interchangeably in order to try to include as many Latin Ethnic
groups as possible.
Which one is used over the other depends on different parts of the country. Usually, Latino is
predominantly used as a term in the East Coast and Hispanic is used in the West Coast, even though
either term is being applied interchangeably nowadays.
Why does the government prefers “Latino” over “Hispanic?” It simply correlates to the federal
government being on the East Coast and using the term “Latino.”

“Pan-Latinoness:” Myth or Reality?
The Pan-Latino approach is an example of a panethnicity factor in U.S. society.
As Schaefer (2002) explains, panethnicity “refers to the development of solidarity among ethnic
subgroups.
Non-Hispanics often give single label to the diverse group of native-born Latino Americans and
immigrants.
This labeling by the out-group is similar to the dominant group’s wa.

0x01 - Newton's Third Law: Static vs. Dynamic AbusersOWASP Beja
f you offer a service on the web, odds are that someone will abuse it. Be it an API, a SaaS, a PaaS, or even a static website, someone somewhere will try to figure out a way to use it to their own needs. In this talk we'll compare measures that are effective against static attackers and how to battle a dynamic attacker who adapts to your counter-measures.

The Hispanic population in the United States increased by 58 percent, from 22.4 million in 1990 to 35.3 million in 2000.
The Hispanic population as a percent of the state’s total population is shown on this slide.
About 44 percent of Hispanics lived in the West and 33 percent in the South. The Northeast and the Midwest accounted for 15 percent and 9 percent respectively of the Hispanic population.
Mexicans, Puerto Ricans, and Cubans were concentrated in different regions. The largest Mexican populations (more than a million) were in California, Texas, Illinois and Arizona. The largest Puerto Rican populations (more than 250,000) were in New York, Florida, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. About two-thirds of all Cubans lived in Florida.
