  • Some Hispanic-owned businesses in the Pittsburgh area plan to close up shop for one day only on Monday. It comes as crackdowns on undocumented immigrants by federal agencies have ramped up in the past couple of weeks. KDKA-TV’s Chilekasi Adele shares the story.

      A "No Hispanic Day," essentially a day where Hispanic people would not participate in work, school, or shopping, would likely have significant economic impacts due to the large number of Hispanic workers across various industries, potentially leading to widespread business disruptions, labor shortages, and a visible demonstration of the vital role Hispanic communities play in the economy; however, it's important to note that such a day would be highly controversial and could be seen as a form of protest against anti-immigrant sentiment or discriminatory policies

    God bless you for supporting and honoring those people. Many of us white Americans who are not racist support folks who are just wanting to better thier lives and thier families by the American dream, which is inclusive and not exclusive. My family ancestry were Irish immigrants. Poor and decrimiated on, but those are the kind of people that built america.
