Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Entre los Repatriados da una vista hacia atrás a la vida del autor así como al trasfondo de su familia. Principia con una descripción histórica de la migración de sus padres a los Estados Unidos. Su padre, Emilio Pineda, fué uno de los muchos mexicanos indocumentados que vinieron a los E.U. cerca del año 1917 a trabajar en los ferrocarriles, durante una escacez de trabajadores causada por la participación de la nación en la primera guerra mundial. Su madre con dos de sus hermanos, se sostenían vendiendo jaulas para pájaros y colgadores de ropa hechos de cuernos de buey. Después cuando ella se unió a Emilio Pineda, ella le ayudaba a pizcar algodón en Phoenix, Arizona. Cuando nació el autor, nació en una cabaña de un cuarto como sus otros hermanos. La vida era muy sencilla para él hasta que llegó a la edad de cuatro años, que vino a marcar una nueva era de retos para él. Se comienza a meter en todo tipo de problemas debido a su curiosidad y juguetonería. Los problemas solo continuaron cuando su papá murió prematuramente. Este evento lo hizo mostrar sus emociones por primera vez y le ayudó a darse cuenta que la vida es frágil y preciosa. Cuando llegó la Gran Depresión, la economía trajo graves consecuencias a la familia Pineda. Lo peor, fue que su viuda madre oyó que el gobierno federal estaba repatriando mexicanos indocumentados de regreso a México. En vez de esperar para que los agentes de inmigración llegaran a repatriarlos, la familia decidió regresar por si misma. El vivir en México se tornó en una experiencia muy difícil y extranjera para Pineda. Al pasar los años, el autor perseveraba y con rasgos de suerte, vino a formar una familia en la tierra del destino.
Book Synopsis Bacardi and the Long Fight for Cuba by : Tom Gjelten
Download or read book Bacardi and the Long Fight for Cuba written by Tom Gjelten and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2008-09-04 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this widely hailed book, NPR correspondent Tom Gjelten fuses the story of the Bacardi family and their famous rum business with Cuba's tumultuous experience over the last 150 years to produce a deeply entertaining historical narrative. The company Facundo Bacardi launched in Cuba in 1862 brought worldwide fame to the island, and in the decades that followed his Bacardi descendants participated in every aspect of Cuban life. With his intimate account of their struggles and adventures across five generations, Gjelten brings to life the larger story of Cuba's fight for freedom, its tortured relationship with America, the rise of Fidel Castro, and the violent division of the Cuban nation.
Book Synopsis Portrait of Peninsula Woman by : Trecia Greene
Download or read book Portrait of Peninsula Woman written by Trecia Greene and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2006-06 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Portrait of Peninsula Woman is a collection of stories written and published September 2001 to June 2005 in the Chinook Observer on the Long Beach Peninsula in the state of Washington. While living in Nahcotta, a tiny little community on the east side of the peninsula overlooking Willapa Bay, I discovered I was actually living next door to stories. I picked up stories among the ninety-five mailboxes at the Nahcotta post office; twisting and stretching with stories in yoga classes; listening to stories played on a grand piano in the little church where the preacher was preaching story; sniffing out stories served up with breakfast, lunch, and dinner in a half dozen restaurants up and down the peninsula. I brought home stories garnered from among the cantaloupe in the grocery aisle and from the copy center next door; scratched out stories among the chickens in the organic garden down the street; heard stories being sung around a campfire burning for children whose laughter sometimes sounds like crying. Peninsula Woman comes and stays, loves and learns, leaves or doesn't. Her stories are in the wind, among the grains of sand, in the spray from the ocean, in a sky whose stars are not blacked out by too many neon lights, in the sunrise over Willapa Bay, and in the sunset sinking its fiery orange into the Pacific. What Peninsula Woman gave to me, I give back to the Peninsula. Her generous gift is story, story, story, and I am forever grateful.
Book Synopsis The Chinese Atlantic by : Sean Metzger
Download or read book The Chinese Atlantic written by Sean Metzger and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2020-05-05 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Chinese Atlantic, Sean Metzger charts processes of global circulation across and beyond the Atlantic, exploring how seascapes generate new understandings of Chinese migration, financial networks and artistic production. Moving across film, painting, performance, and installation art, Metzger traces flows of money, culture, and aesthetics to reveal the ways in which routes of commerce stretching back to the Dutch Golden Age have molded and continue to influence the social reproduction of Chineseness. With a particular focus on the Caribbean, Metzger investigates the expressive culture of Chinese migrants and the communities that received these waves of people. He interrogates central issues in the study of similar case studies from South Africa and England to demonstrate how Chinese Atlantic seascapes frame globalization as we experience it today. Frequently focusing on art that interacts directly with the sites in which it is located, Metzger explores how Chinese migrant laborers and entrepreneurs did the same to shape—both physically and culturally—the new spaces in which they found themselves. In this manner, Metzger encourages us to see how artistic imagination and practice interact with migration to produce a new way of framing the global.
