Alberto Chapa (Sanchez-Navarro) and Petra (Farias Perez) de Chapa
Sabinas Hidalgo, Nuevo Leon, Mexico, circa 1915

Para un hombre, su palabra es todo.

Counsel given to me by my grandfather, el Profesor Alberto Chapa Sanchez,
former Superintendent of Schools, Sabinas Hidalgo, Nuevo Leon, Mexico, July 1952 in Stockton, California . . . Mimi

A strong family is the foundation of a strong nation,
and a strong nation is a law-abiding nation,
with maximum freedom and safety for its citizens.

~ Mimi Lozano

Welcome to Somos Primos™, a publication dedicated to past and present articles, events and information concerning Hispanic heritage issues. Somos Primos is an all volunteer effort. There is no cost for accessing issues.
The editorial focus of Somos Primos is to connect present day situations to its historical foundation. The goal is to awaken all those with a heritage connection, a link to Spain/Hispania, to the fact, that we are walking, following in the footsteps of our ancestors. Whether that path is clear to our vision or not, we are in the midst of that road.

It is imperative that we grasp the unique and individual part in world history, and especially United States history, that our grand-parents played. The contributions of our ancestors are important to understand the many social issues of today.

Whether the umbrella title is Hispanic or Latino, the problem is one of a confused and distorted image. Who are we? The identity problem is based on many historical occurrences, political and social factors which are currently being explored, on many levels.

Somos Primos originated in 1986 with a different name. It was first as a flyer posting upcoming meetings for a Hispanic Research Study group in Orange County, California. The study group grew into a non-profit, and the flyer developed into Somos Primos, a quarterly for the now named Society of Hispanic Historical and Ancestral Research, SHHAR,
a 28- page hard copy published from 1990 to 1999. www.SHHAR.net is distributing a CD of those ten years.
January 2000, the first issue of the monthly SomosPrimos.com was posted online. As increasing amount of information was shared by individuals and groups, the online issues grew to a journal length monthly.

Somos Primos online exposure resulted in many and increasing national [project for promoting Spanish language heritage and history. In 2004, Somos Primos was invited to assist in organizing the first conference on Hispanic heritage ever held at the National Archives in Washington, D.C. Hispanics and the Formation of the American People During 2005 we were involved with and facilitated six heritage events. For more information, please go to: NARA

In 2012 the National Council of La Raza invited Somos Primos to participate in their National Conference, held in Las Vegas.We were invited again in 2013, held in New Orleans, a very historic city. Read More

The goal of Somos Primos has been to encourage family history research, with the mission of strengthening families by compiling correct heritage information.

Purpose: strengthening the individual's self identity and heritage, with a bridge to the past, and a connection to the present.

My goal was to take those of us with Spanish surnames in the United States back Spain and Southern Europe, to the origination of the surnames we were carrying. I wanted to show us all over the world, and in every time period. I wanted to show how our roots were entrenched in the history of the world, and had shaped the establishment, growth and development of the United States. I wanted to show that we had every reason to be proud of our roots, our heritage, and our Spanish surnames. I wanted to show that we were of mixed racial heritage, with Indigenous, African, Asian, Anglo and Middle-East blood.

We are Primos with the whole world.

I was hopeful that this knowledge embedded within our hearts would make us grateful to be Latino Americans, and create in us a bold patriotic stand. Our ancestors, and we now, are part of the great political experiment, of freedom and justice for all. Let us use our energies as did our ancestors to maintain the freedom . . . based on equal treatment under the law to help. Through wars and turmoil, we reached the highest level of freedom, equality and social order in recorded history. Let us unify to uphold our treasure, the United States of America.
