Contrary with what many think, Latino/x population in the US is not a monolith, far from fitting the one-size-fits-all formula, the 60 million Americans of Latino/Hispanic origin represent over 20 Latin American countries, and a wide range of socioeconomic backgrounds, education levels, geographic locations, histories, political affiliations.

Note to the reader: According to the Pew Research Center Latinx is a term used to describe people who are of or relate to Latin American origin or descent. It is a gender-neutral or nonbinary alternative to Latino for male or Latina for female. About One-in-Four U.S. Hispanics Have Heard of Latinx, but Just 3% use it. To honor that preference I will use Latino throughout the questions but we encourage you to find out from your audience their preferred term.
