Less than 40% of the U.S. population achieves the recommended amount of leisure-time physical activity (LTPA) recommended by the American College of Sports Medicine [ACSM (>150 minutes/week of moderate-intensity or equivalent vigorous-intensity LTPA)]. The number of Hispanic/Latino men and women who report being physically inactive is disproportionately higher than non-Hispanic/Latinos. The purpose of this investigation is to evaluate factors which influence the achievement of meeting ACSM recommendations for LTPA among adults with Hispanic/Latino ethnicity and whites (non-Hispanic/Latino)

In the countless conversations about U.S. immigration policy that I have had with Mexican Americans of varied backgrounds and political orientations, seldom have my interlocutors failed to remind me that “We were here first,” or that “This was our land and you stole it from us.” Even a moderate Mexican American politician like former San Antonio Mayor Henry Cisneros sounds the same theme in a national news magazine:It is no accident that these regions have the names they do—Los Angeles, San Francisco, Colorado, Montana.…It is a rich history that Americans have been led to believe is an immigra

A strong Democratic supporter for much of his early political career, Badillo became disenchanted with the New York Democratic Party, chiding the party as being too originalist in its message and not adapting with the problems of the 1970s through early 2000s. He also noted that the New York Democratic Party was plagued with corruption and failed to tackle certain problems that were harming the city, such as crime, poverty, and theft,

Abstract:
This petition demonstrates the interaction of Mesoamerican settlements under Iberian authorities during the seventeenth century. After the Spanish conquest of the Aztec empire in 1521, the Spaniards allowed the former Indigenous political organization to remain in place as long it was subordinated to the Spanish Crown. This allowed the survival of the altepetl, which was akin to the town council (cabildo) of the Spanish settlements. The altepetl even adopted Spanish ranks such as mayor (alcalde) and magistrate (corregidor). At the peak of this hierarchy were Indigenous rulers (caciques) who we

Women have a higher lifetime stroke risk than men but tend to have their first stroke at a later age. Rates of first stroke are higher for African American and Hispanic persons than for white persons, and African American individuals have a comparatively higher related death rate.

A deep history of Mesoamerica traces how the transition from nomadic foragers to settled farmers of maize and other crops resulted in the first villages, unifying art styles, and later cities, states, and empires. Cultures such as the Olmecs, Mayas, Teotihuacanos, and Toltecs preceded the Aztecs, who incorporated elements of all of them, particularly the last two from the same region of central Mexico.
