SAN ANTONIO ā The Latino vote proved to be powerful during this yearās presidential election, and a San Antonio activist believes more people should be paying attention to Latinos moving forward.
āIf thereās ever a moment for the Latino community to lead itself, we have to start today because we are the future of the country,ā said Henry Munoz during a KSAT Q&A on Friday.
Munoz is the founder of Momento Latino , a coalition of activists, nonprofits and leaders in communities around the nation who are pushing for change and working to elevate issues important to the Latino community.
