Beth Snyder Bulik May 2012 “Instead of assimilating into U.S. culture, Hispanics are adding American ways to their traditional heritage and culture. Culture, to many U.S. Latinos, is tied to their self-identity” “While some marketers realize the importance of cultural connection, there has been no standard way to measure it and apply it for different demographic groups”
