Book Synopsis Listening to Rosita by : Mary Ann Villarreal
Download or read book Listening to Rosita written by Mary Ann Villarreal and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2015-10-20 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everybody in the bar had to drop a quarter in the jukebox or be shamed by “Momo” Villarreal. It wasn’t about the money, Mary Ann Villarreal’s grandmother insisted. It was about the music—more songs for all the patrons of the Pecan Lounge in Tivoli, Texas. But for Mary Ann, whose schoolbooks those quarters bought, the money didn’t hurt. When as an adult Villarreal began to wonder how the few recordings of women singers made their way into that jukebox, questions about the money seemed inseparable from those about the music. In Listening to Rosita, Villarreal seeks answers by pursuing the story of a small group of Tejana singers and entrepreneurs in Corpus Christi, Houston, and San Antonio—the “Texas Triangle”—during the mid-twentieth century. Ultimately she recovers a social world and cultural landscape in central south Texas where Mexican American women negotiated the shifting boundaries of race and economics to assert a public presence. Drawing on oral history, interviews, and insights from ethnic and gender studies, Listening to Rosita provides a counternarrative to previous research on la música tejana, which has focused almost solely on musicians or musical genres. Villarreal instead chronicles women’s roles and contributions to the music industry. In spotlighting the sixty-year singing career of San Antonian Rosita Fernández, the author pulls the curtain back on all the women whose names and stories have been glaringly absent from the ethnic and economic history of Tejana music and culture. In this oral history of the Tejana cantantes who performed and owned businesses in the Texas Triangle, Listening to Rosita shows how ethnic Mexican entrepreneurs developed a unique identity in striving for success in a society that demeaned and segregated them. In telling their story, this book supplies a critical chapter long missing from the history of the West.
Book Synopsis Culture Clash and Accommodation by : Frederick Stewart Buchanan
Download or read book Culture Clash and Accommodation written by Frederick Stewart Buchanan and published by Signature Books. This book was released on 1996 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public schools have played a major role in the religious-secular conflicts that occur perennially in Salt Lake City. Only in the last thirty years has the tension been muted, although the tug of war continues in subtle ways through curriculum disputes, political issues, and pressure to implement social and pedagogical trends. In many ways, the schools reflect the larger community's struggle to make peace with itself.Even the notion of tax-supported public schools was initially opposed by Latter-day Saints, who saw it as a potential threat to church dominance. Until the 1920s, few Mormons certified to teach, and disputes over the likes of small pox vaccinations took on conspiratorial overtones. Of the first four district superintendents, three were non-Mormon. But they were followed by such prominent representatives of the LDS church as L. John Nuttal Jr., grandson and namesake of the influential secretary to the LDS First Presidency; Howard S. McDonald, future BYU president; and M. Lynn Bennion, former LDS supervisor of seminaries.David O. McKay and others once strategized about how to infiltrate and take over the schools. But once they succeeded in gaining control, they decided not to make the schools a theocratic bulwark against the world, as originally conceived.

Book excerpt: A guide for parents to help children of all ages process the onslaught of unfiltered information in the digital age. Education is not solely about acquiring information and skills across subject areas, but also about understanding how and why we believe what we do. At a time when online media has created a virtual firehose of information and opinions, parents and teachers worry how students will interpret what they read and see. Amid the noise, it has become increasingly important to examine different perspectives with both curiosity and discernment. But how do parents teach these skills to their children? Drawing on more than twenty years’ experience homeschooling and developing curricula, Julie Bogart offers practical tools to help children at every stage of development to grow in their ability to explore the world around them, examine how their loyalties and biases affect their beliefs, and generate fresh insight rather than simply recycling what they’ve been taught. Full of accessible stories and activities for children of all ages, Raising Critical Thinkers helps parents to nurture passionate learners with thoughtful minds and empathetic hearts.
