Scholars of Color- Milton Lara

What is Scholars of Color?

It is a platform in which scholars of color are purposefully celebrated. It’s a space where scholars of color are showcased front and center. It is a digital space where we feel empowered and resilient. Let us get to know each other. Let us cheer each other on AND show the world what we have to offer.

Let us now welcome Milton Lara to the Scholars of Color space!

Name: Milton Lara

Gender Pronouns: Him/He/His

What do you currently do for work and/or school?: I am a Graphic Designer and the creator of Loteria Salvadoreña

Without positions or titles, how would you describe yourself?: Very free spirit, easy going chill guy, with good morals and values. I love my family and am very close to them. I enjoy the company of my friends and look forward to small gatherings. I take the smaller things in life more serious. I’m that person that would rather spend my money on good times and make memories, then buy a new car or get a bigger house. I love meeting new people, and learning from them. I take responsibility for my own actions and will blame myself for my failures. I am human and have made many mistakes and I will continue to make them, because that’s just how I learn.

What are you passionate about?: Art, in all its forms.

Why is the representation of scholars of color important to you?: I believe people need to see the vibrant beautiful culture that is El Salvador.
