 GCAC - Latina Letters
With the publication of Milligan's Latina fiction anthology Daughters of the Fifth Sun (Putman/Riverhead, 1994), the idea evolved for an academic conference devoted to the themes of Latina literature and identity.
Thus was born Hijas del Quinto Sol: Studies in Latina Identity, so named because of the role the book had played in the evolution of the ideas behind the conference.
Latina Letters reflected more accurately the array of topics addressed as well as the changing demographics of the United States.

 Los Angeles Business Journal: Latina Entrepreneurs - National Foundation for Women Business Owners survey - Industry ...
"Latina entrepreneurs are certainly not newcomers in the U.S.," noted Nina McLemore, NFWBO Chair and President of Regent Capital, in discussing the study, "The Spirit of Enterprise: Latina Entrepreneurs in the United States." "Those surveyed have owned their businesses for an average of 12 years.
The Latina business owners interviewed for this survey started their firms with slightly more capital than all women business owners interviewed for a 1998 NFWBO survey, "Paths to Entrepreneurship." Just over half (54%) of Latina entrepreneurs surveyed started their firms with $10,000 or more, compared to 44% of all women business owners.
Less than half (45%) of Latina women entrepreneurs in the study borrowed funds to start their businesses; most borrowed from commercial banks (35%) and family members besides spouses (23%); other sources were personal credit cards, friends, spouses, and refinanced homes.

 § 42. Latina. 6. Names and Labels. The American Heritage Book of English Usage. 1996   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
The use of the feminine forms Latina and Chicana as nouns in referring to a woman or girl is perfectly proper in American English, and failure to do so (as in She is a Latino) may sometimes be resented.
First, the rules of adjective-noun agreement required by Spanish grammar do not normally affect English usage; thus the choice between She is the city’s first Latino mayor and She is the city’s first Latina mayor does not depend on the gender of the Spanish word for mayor.
Second, the use of the masculine form as a modifier with reference to a woman is common and unremarkable in English, as in “Bush Appoints Latino Woman to U.S. Court” (headline in the Sacramento Bee) and “Juror 1427, a Latino woman who works for the Los Angeles County assessor” (the Los Angeles Times).

Will their keyboards and lips remain silent in the face of intentional ethnic targeting of young Latinas to self-destructive smoking of an extremely addictive drug?

 About Patrologia Latina Database
Migne's Patrologia Latina was originally printed in 217 volumes from 1844 to 1855.
Consequently, the Patrologia Latina Database has been based exclusively on the copies of the first edition of the texts and indices.
However, he eventually judged that it would be wiser to conclude the series with the year 1216 as, after that year, the explosion of philosophical and theological writing made it impossible for any series to include even representative portions of the principal texts.
