SEGMENT #1
Today on this special Hispanic Heritage Month edition of Latino USA, 
we travel to the fringes of Latino identity to explore common ground  
-- the Latino connection.  The old empire of Spain was vast and it left 
an enduring imprint on the distant reaches of what used to be its 
former colonies.  Reporter Ingrid Lobet begins our exploration with a 
visit to "Filipino America" (7:13)

SEGMENT #2
New Mexico ... Culturally diverse, physically beautiful ... As the slogan 
goes, the land of enchantment.  But beyond the glossy ads for Indian 
or Hispanic arts and crafts there  exists special ties between New 
Mexico's Native American and Hispano people... relationships which 
have ebbed and flowed for hundreds of years. And as Marcos 
Martinez reports from Albuquerque, these relationships are once 
again being tested and heard as a circle of voices. (6:52)

SEGMENT #3
Chicago storyteller Antonio "Tony" "Papito" Sacre has inherited the 
legacy of two fiery islands. A descendent of Cuban and Irish 
immigrants, he shares the stories of two families with uncanny 
similiarities and the place he has found for himself, somewhere in 
the middle ...

BACKANNOUNCE:
Antonio Sacre is a story teller traveling the country building bridges 
between people and cultures ... (4:05)
