Did you know that you can stream movies at home for free with your Pima account on Kanopy?
This month's highlighted movie is "Residente" in honor of Hispanic Heritage Month. Stream it here or click the film poster below. Only current students, staff and faculty can access with their MyPima username and password.
Discover how Rene Perez, AKA RESIDENTE, evolved from struggling art student into the founder of Latin America’s most influential rap group, Calle 13, and became one of Latin America’s most outspoken critics of injustice and corruption. Inspired after mapping out his DNA, RESIDENTE left the group the peak of its success to embark on a new project through Siberia, the Caucasus, China and West Africa in order to trace the footsteps of his ancestors. Music becomes the primary focus, framing each destination and informing every conversation. -Description from Kanopy

Check out Pima Community College Library's new Library guide on Hispanic and Latinx Heritage Month!
Hispanic Heritage Month is celebrated every year from September 15th to October 15th in the United States. This month-long celebration is dedicated to recognizing, appreciating, and honoring the contributions and cultures of Hispanic and Latino Americans to the history, culture, and achievements of the United States.
The celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month starts on September 15th because it marks the anniversary of independence for five Latin American countries - Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua. Additionally, Mexico celebrates its independence on September 16th, and Chile on September 18th. This month-long celebration is filled with various events and activities such as cultural festivals, music and dance performances, lectures and workshops on Hispanic history and culture, and much more.
The Hispanic and Latino population has made significant contributions to the United States in various fields such as art, music, literature, science, education, politics, and business. Hispanic Heritage Month is an excellent opportunity for individuals to learn more about the diverse and vibrant cultures of Hispanic and Latino Americans and to celebrate their contributions to the nation.
