Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2022 National Association for Chicana and Chicano Studies Book Award Tejas Foco Non-fiction Book Award, National Association for Chicana and Chicano Studies 2021 Tejano Book Prize, Tejano Genealogy Society of Austin 2021 Jim Parish Award for Documentation and Publication of Local and Regional History, Webb County Heritage Foundation 2021 Runner-up, Ramirez Family Award for Most Significant Scholarly Book The first book on the history of escuelitas, Reading, Writing, and Revolution examines the integral role these grassroots community schools played in shaping Mexican American identity. Language has long functioned as a signifier of power in the United States. In Texas, as elsewhere in the Southwest, ethnic Mexicans’ relationship to education—including their enrollment in the Spanish-language community schools called escuelitas—served as a vehicle to negotiate that power. Situating the history of escuelitas within the contexts of modernization, progressivism, public education, the Mexican Revolution, and immigration, Reading, Writing, and Revolution traces how the proliferation and decline of these community schools helped shape Mexican American identity. Philis M. Barragán Goetz argues that the history of escuelitas is not only a story of resistance in the face of Anglo hegemony but also a complex and nuanced chronicle of ethnic Mexican cultural negotiation. She shows how escuelitas emerged and thrived to meet a diverse set of unfulfilled needs, then dwindled as later generations of Mexican Americans campaigned for educational integration. Drawing on extensive archival, genealogical, and oral history research, Barragán Goetz unravels a forgotten narrative at the crossroads of language and education as well as race and identity.

Book Synopsis Five Generations of a Mexican American Family in Los Angeles by : Christina Chávez
Download or read book Five Generations of a Mexican American Family in Los Angeles written by Christina Chávez and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2007 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Despite their citizenship and English monolingualism, Mexican Americans have long been known to remain largely working class, which, academically, has meant that they tend to be mostly high school graduates with low rates of college attendance and completion. Attempting to understand this phenomenon, Five Generations of a Mexican American Family in Los Angeles chronicles the home work, and school lives of the author's multigenerational family throughout the twentieth century. Using oral histories of thirty-three members across five generations, the Fuentes story illuminates the interactions among race, ethnicity, and class at home, in the labor market, and in schools, which circumscribe the opportunity and resources - or lack thereof - for academic success."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Synopsis The Last Conquistador by : Marc Simmons
Download or read book The Last Conquistador written by Marc Simmons and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 1993-03-01 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book chronicles the life and frontier career of Don Juan de Oñate, the first colonizer of the old Spanish Borderlands. Born in Zacatecas, Mexico, in the mid-sixteenth century, Don Juan was the prominent son of an aristocratic silver-mining family. In 1598, in his late forties, Oñate led a formidable expedition of settlers, with wagons and livestock, on an epic march northward to the upper Rio Grade Valley of New Mexico. There he established the first European settlement west of the Mississippi, launching a significant chapter in early American history. In his activities he displayed qualities typical of Spain’s sixteenth-century men of action; in his career we find a summation of the motives, aspirations, intentions, strengths, and weaknesses of the Hispanic pioneers who settled the Borderlands.
Book Synopsis Maldonado Journey to the Kingdom of New Mexico by : Gilbert Maldonado
Download or read book Maldonado Journey to the Kingdom of New Mexico written by Gilbert Maldonado and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2014-02-27 with total page 589 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maldonado traces the journey of his family from Scandinavia and the Holy Land to Spain and Portugal and finally to the Kingdom of New Mexico. Arriving in 1598 with the expedition of Juan de Oate, his ancestors were some of the first settlers of New Mexico. Of the 144 original Spanish/Portuguese colonial families from the 16th and 17th centuries listed by historian and cousin Fray Anglico Chvez, in his pioneering book Origins of New Mexico Families/A Genealogy of the Spanish Colonial Period, 119 are on the Maldonado family tree. From the 18th century, 174 of the 277 colonial families identified by Chvez are also on the Maldonado family tree. Over 5,300 names comprise the Maldonado tree - many of them important figures in the annals of New Mexico history. Maldonado's family tree proves the old adage that everyone in New Mexico is a primo, cousin.
Book Synopsis Moctezuma's Children by : Donald E. Chipman
Download or read book Moctezuma's Children written by Donald E. Chipman and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though the Aztec Empire fell to Spain in 1521, three principal heirs of the last emperor, Moctezuma II, survived the conquest and were later acknowledged by the Spanish victors as reyes naturales (natural kings or monarchs) who possessed certain inalienable rights as Indian royalty. For their part, the descendants of Moctezuma II used Spanish law and customs to maintain and enhance their status throughout the colonial period, achieving titles of knighthood and nobility in Mexico and Spain. So respected were they that a Moctezuma descendant by marriage became Viceroy of New Spain (colonial Mexico's highest governmental office) in 1696. This authoritative history follows the fortunes of the principal heirs of Moctezuma II across nearly two centuries. Drawing on extensive research in both Mexican and Spanish archives, Donald E. Chipman shows how daughters Isabel and Mariana and son Pedro and their offspring used lawsuits, strategic marriages, and political maneuvers and alliances to gain pensions, rights of entailment, admission to military orders, and titles of nobility from the Spanish government. Chipman also discusses how the Moctezuma family history illuminates several larger issues in colonial Latin American history, including women's status and opportunities and trans-Atlantic relations between Spain and its New World colonies.
