Boston City Councilor Julia Mejia Hosts Inaugural Dominican Independence Day Breakfast

Boston City Councilor Julia Mejia is hosting an inaugural Dominican Independence Day Breakfast to celebrate the Dominican community’s growth and influence. The event comes at a time when the Dominican community is recognized as the fastest-growing Latino immigrant population in the state, with Boston City Council reflecting its increasing political influence through the presence of three Dominican members. The breakfast aims to ‘hold space and amplify the voices and achievements of the Dominican Community,’ as stated by Mejia, serving as a platform not only to celebrate the nation’s independence but also to recognize the unity and resilience of the community.
