** United nations?
------------------------------------------------------------
A new survey ([link removed]) by Pew Research Center finds broad support for international cooperation among publics in 14 economically advanced countries, with a majority convinced that increased coordination among countries could have helped mitigate the impact of the coronavirus outbreak. The idea of nations functioning as a global community, as opposed to competing states, has overwhelming support, and roughly six-in-ten say their own government should take the interests of other countries into account when making foreign policy decisions, even if it requires compromise.
The survey results are informing the UN75 ([link removed]) initiative, which seeks to engage ordinary citizens in a conversation about the world we want in 2045. Pew Research Center is pleased to help bring the voice of the people to this vital, global dialogue.

** Who is Hispanic? ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
Debates over who is Hispanic and who is not have fueled conversations about identity among Americans ([link removed]) who trace their heritage to Latin America or Spain. So, who is considered Hispanic in the United States? Generally, anyone who says they are Hispanic – and nobody who says they aren’t. Here’s how Pew Research Center and the U.S. Census Bureau use self-identification to decide who is Hispanic.
* About one-in-four U.S. Hispanics have heard of Latinx, but just 3% use it ([link removed])
* Hispanics have accounted for more than half of total U.S. population growth since 2010 ([link removed])
