The oldest Latino civil rights group in the US is mulling dropping the word “Latinx” from its official communications. A fresh poll showed the term is perceived negatively by some 40% of Latino voters.
Domingo Garcia, president of the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC), sent an email on Wednesday to other members of the group’s management, suggesting that they should stop using “Latinx” because it was “very unliked” by the very people they serve.
