Free NYC Screening of Eva Longoria Parker's "Latinos Living The American Dream"

By Simone Hilliard

If you happen to be in the greater NYC area on Thursday (November 4) between the hours of 7-9pm, then you should definitely check out the NY premiere of  Eva Longoria Parker's "Latinos Living The American Dream" at El Museo del Barrio. Did we mention it's FREE?!!!

To create the doc, Eva selected stories from a pool of over 600 submissions to www.pepsiyosumo.com, shared by Latinos nationwide.

Of the many submissions, Longoria Parker released the following statement:

"Every story entered was so inspiring, that identifying only a few to highlight was a difficult and intense process. We hope that by shinning the light on some Latinos who are leading successful lives – getting an education, pursuing a career and giving back to their community – we can encourage people everywhere to make their own impact locally and nationally, further proving the drive and power of our culture."

While "Latinos Living the American Dream" premiered on October 21st at Los Angeles' Grauman's Chinese Theater, it will now begin a series of screenings held at cultural centers and college campuses nationwide to foster a bigger dialogue on the state and representation of Latinos across the country.
