In op-ed, San Antonio U.S. Rep. Joaquin Castro calls out publishing industry for failing Latinos
In a new Publishers Weekly opinion piece, U.S. Rep. Joaquin Castro, D-San Antonio, called out the U.S. publishing industry for underserving the nation's Latino population. In the editorial, the congressman explained that Latinos make up 18% of the American workforce and roughly 20% of the overall population, signifying they should be well represented across U.S. industries. However, Castro in 2020 commissioned the nonpartisan Government Accountability Office (GAO) to research Latino employment in media and found that publishing is only 8% Latino.
