The Latino population in Tennessee has soared, especially in the last 10 years. Census numbers showed growth in 94 of 95 counties in 2020, especially in Middle Tennessee.

The Latino Tennessee Voices newsletter launched on Sept. 15, 2021, as an English-language news bulletin and aggregator curated by David Plazas, director of Opinion and Engagement for the USA TODAY Network newsrooms in Tennessee and The Tennessean.

Every week, different stories and columns are featured with the focus on representing the Latino experience. The event will be held at Plaza Mariachi, the community center and event space on Nolensville Pike, in the heart of the immigrant community of Nashville. Local storytellers will share their experiences in self-discovery, fitting in, and finding their voices with audiences.
