Who are the newcomers?

I am pleased to see the special report "Hispanic Americans: Into the Mainstream," May 21. However, it is critical that you correct the impression that all Hispanics are recent immigrants. Hispanic settlers first came to New Mexico in the 16th century, and now face losing the political and economic control they once had here. Sandra Pinel, Santa Fe, N.M.

Why is Christian Science in our name?

Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The Christian Science Church, and we’ve always been transparent about that.

The Church publishes the Monitor because it sees good journalism as vital to progress in the world. Since 1908, we’ve aimed “to injure no man, but to bless all mankind,” as our founder, Mary Baker Eddy, put it.

Here, you’ll find award-winning journalism not driven by commercial influences – a news organization that takes seriously its mission to uplift the world by seeking solutions and finding reasons for credible hope.
