Over the next five years, a group of scholars and community researchers in communities across Wisconsin will begin documenting Latinx history in our state through the recently created Wisconsin Latinx History Collective (WHLC).
The Wisconsin Historical Society (WHS) will serve as the archival repository for collections and as a resource to the group. (
