Milwaukee PBS | Documentaries and Specials | Latino Wisconsin

Latino Wisconsin vividly illustrates the impact, influence and importance of the state’s fastest growing population. Latinos are reviving rural communities and aging urban centers. They are creating businesses and breathing new life into empty storefronts and developing community, cultural and educational programs that benefit entire communities. There’s also a new generation of leaders and professionals who are bringing new life, energy and diversity into the Badger State. Latino Wisconsin also looks at the long history of Latinos in the state and the fights for civil rights, education and opportunities. Today, struggles with poverty, education, immigration, jobs, economic opportunity and political power continue. Still, many Latinos are working to build a future for themselves, their communities and the Dairy State.
