Reflection for Hispanic Heritage Month
from Catholic Health Prayers and Reflections Hosted by Catholic Health Association of the United States
From September 15 to October 15, we celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month and the many Spanish-speaking countries and cultures which have positively contributed to the diversity we share in the United States. CHA is pleased to present the following poem – "Como Tú" – in both Spanish and English translations, along with some questions for reflection. "Como Tú" was penned in Spanish by the Salvadoran poet Roque Dalton (1935-1975) and translated by Jack Hirschman (1933-2021), an American poet from New York. Both were passionate social activists committed to advocating for the poor and vulnerable.
