What it means to be Hispanic.\nSeptember 15th-October 15th is recognized as Hispanic Heritage month. But what does it even mean to be Hispanic? Is it a language\, a place of origin\, a race\, a way of life\, or something else? From the confusing census forms to the word itself there are many grey areas that might leave this diverse set of people feeling an identity crisis – let’s dive into the nuances of how each of us defines Hispanic culture and explore the areas we’re proud of. \n—————– \n\nFree event – no membership needed (we just ask that you please support the small businesses we visit by purchasing something if you can)\nRSVP\n\n—————– \nLOCATION \nThis month we’re headed to a Mexican-owned and operated business in Phoenix called Tres Leches Cafe that serves some classics like horchata\, aguas frescas\, and other Mexican-inspired beverages. They even have pan dulce (sweet bread) to go with your cafecito (little coffee)! \nTres Leches Cafe has 2 locations and we are meeting at the location on the north side of Van Buren st just west of 17th ave. A small parking lot is located behind the building to the north. The other location is a small drive-through so please don’t get confused! \n1714 W Van Buren St\nPhoenix\, Arizona 85007 \n—————– \nABOUT COFFEE TALKS \nEvery other month join us for Coffee Talks – order a warm/iced beverage of your choice from rotating café locations around the valley\, get comfortable\, and bring your open mind to this productive discussion where NOMAarizona facilitators will ask the group questions and hold space to share\, listen\, and learn from each other in a casual setting. \nThis is intended to be a forum for discussion of ideas and for learning about differing viewpoints. In discussions around diversity and equity it is important to understand that everyone sees and experiences the world differently – what seems “right” in your experience may not be so in someone else’s. Everyone is asked to consider different perspectives\, for the purpose of sensitivity\, learning\, and growth. Members of NOMAarizona will typically be the facilitators for our discussions. We are not experts. We are simply here to help facilitate the process. We are here\, like everyone else\, to learn. \n—————– \nIf you have a topic you’d like to chat about or a location to suggest – submit to jena.m.esquivel@gmail.com \n  URL:https://nomaarizona.org/event/coffee-talk-12-hispanic-heritage/ LOCATION:Tres Leches Cafe\, 1714 W Van Buren St\, Phoenix\, AZ\, 85007\, United States CATEGORIES:Coffee Talk,Networking ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://nomaarizona.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/coffee-talk-12-02.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Phoenix:20230617T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Phoenix:20230617T113000 DTSTAMP:20260429T140521 CREATED:20230425T214732Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230518T040249Z UID:1381-1686996000-1687001400@nomaarizona.org SUMMARY:Coffee Talk #11 - Speak on it!

For those unable to be with their friends and family\, we decided to start a potluck-style casual gathering that we dubbed “home cooking away from home” consisting of our membership to fellowship with culturally familiar food and drink as a taste of home. \nThe event has evolved over the years and through COVID-19 to suit different needs – but we are thrilled to gather in person again this year at Steele Indian School Park under the ramada embracing the nice weather. Rather than potluck style – the main course will be catered HOWEVER we are asking our members to please bring a small dessert representative of their culture to share with the group if they would like. \nFriends are welcome! Please bring anyone you would like but be sure to RSVP so we know how much food to prepare. \n\nLocation details\nWe have reserved ramadas W1 and W2 near Lot A at the north west side near Bird Lake at Steele Indian School Park. \n \n \n  URL:https://nomaarizona.org/event/home-cooking-away-from-home/ LOCATION:Steele Indian School Park\, 300 E.
