Jim Acosta: It is time for a new Latino political movement in this country.

It is time for a new Latino political movement in this country. I’d love to see a million Latino march in Washington. To remind Trump and his people that we are Americans too.

I was 11-12 years old at that time and in Alabama so I don't recall much of that happening nearby. If that is really the last Latino political movement then it's way past time for another.
