Hispanic Heritage Month runs from September 15th through October 15th, and as the final days of spotlighting those from Latino backgrounds come to an end, MSNBC is putting together a special feature.
MSNBC announced that anchor Alicia Menendez is speaking with key Hispanic leaders for a feature called "American Voices: Latinos Inside the White House," airing Sunday, October 10th at 7 p.m. ET.
"The hour will celebrate the heritage of representatives in the Biden Administration, highlight how their background influences their roles, and probe into the unique policy challenges of their community," the statement said.
Menendez plans to interview plenty of top Latino Administration officials, many of whom possess historical roles, including:
- U.S. Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro N. Mayorkas – first Latino DHS secretary
- U.S. Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services Xavier Becerra – first Latino HHS secretary
- U.S. Secretary of the Department Education Miguel Cardona
- Administrator of the Small Business Administration Isabella Casillas Guzman – first Latina to be appointed to President Biden's Cabinet
- White House Social Secretary Carlos Elizondo – first Latino in the position
- Director of the White House Office of Political Outreach and Strategy Emmy Ruiz – first Latina in the role
- Director of the White House Office for Intergovernmental Affairs Julie Chávez Rodriguez
