    John Herrera was the founder of El Pueblo, co-founder of the Latino Community Credit Union in Durham, co-founder of La Fiesta del Pueblo, first Latinx nominated to be part of the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) board, and first Latinx elected to municipal office in North Carolina as the alderman of Carrboro. Herrera talked about his family and where they lived; growing up in San Jose, Costa Rica; why he left Costa Rica; his arrival in North Carolina and his first impression of NC; how North Carolina changed since his arrival; and when he knew North Carolina was his home. Herrera described his experiences creating community in North Carolina, working on the NCUA board, and serving his community as alderman of Carrboro; and he explained why he entered politics. He talked about the importance of the credit union for the Latino community and the success of the credit union. Herrera explained about the mission of El Pueblo, an advocacy organization which strengthens the Latino community in North Carolina through advocacy, public policy, leadership, development, education, and promotion of cross-cultural understanding. El Pueblo organized and brought about the 1996 La Fiesta del Pueblo; and developed North Carolina's first Latino legislative agenda in 2001. Herrera talked about the inaugural La Fiesta del Pueblo in 1994, and the community reaction and response to the festival. La Fiesta del Pueblo, the largest Latinx festival in the Raleigh-Durham area, featured booths for social, physical, and mental health services; a soccer tournament; food; and entertainment. The inaugural festival targeted Mexican farmworkers; 300 were expected, but 2000 attended. Herrera also talked about what makes him happy, proud; lessons he learned; and what he does for fun. Clips of this interview were included in the 'Community-Owned Banking,' 'Recognition and Representation,' and 'La Fiesta del Pueblo' sections of the exhibition.

    Scope and Contents
    Pamela Sanchez talked about her family and where they lived; growing up in Atlanta, Georgia; her experience attending college in Boston, Massachusetts; her arrival in Charlotte, North Carolina and her first impressions; and how Charlotte has changed. Sanchez described the Georgia and North Carolina communities in which she lived. She talked about the origin and growth of her father's company, Norsan Media; the public relations work she does for the company; and how Latino media landscape has changed. Sanchez spoke about the origin and evolution of the festival 'Hola Charlotte,' and described how it was different from other festivals. 'Hola Charlotte,' started in 2012, was the first Latinx Heritage Festival in uptown Charlotte. The festival included a Latin American village which featured authentic clothing, art, music, dance, and culture from a variety of Latin American countries. When the village was added to the festival in 2013, it featured 10 countries; in 2016, the village featured fifteen countries. Sanchez also talked about what makes her happy, proud; lessons she has learned; and what she does for fun. After Sanchez's interview, she and her sister talked about their family (parents from Mexico); growing up in Atlanta; Norsan Media, the company their father started; their father's work ethic; and working in the national sales department of Norsan Media. Clips of this interview were included in 'Local Media' and 'Hola Charlotte' sections of the exhibition.
