Latino musicians needed for National Recording Registry

Catch up quick: Castro has pushed for more Latino representation in the arts for years.

• Since 2022, the registry has selected four of Castro's music nominations including Juan Gabriel's "Amor Eterno," Héctor Lavoe's "El Cantante," Irene Cara's "Flashdance…What A Feeling" and Daddy Yankee's "Gasolina."
• He also successfully advocated for adding "Selena" to the National Film Registry in 2021.

By the numbers: The National Recording Registry currently includes 650 recordings, with less than 5% by Latinos, according to Castro's office.

How it works: The public can submit their favorites online.

• Songs must be at least 10 years old.
