Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today's Inspired Latina is a book of inspiration and hope, a poignant collection of personal stories that will activate your passion. These are success stories that need to be told, to motivate our community and generations to come. By overcoming language barriers, self-doubts and other obstacles in their way, these strong Latinas are a great example of how inspiration and perseverance can lead you to happiness and success in business and life. It's a positive, empowering read for anyone sitting on a dream and thinking it can't come true. Today's Inspired Latina shows that it can! Introduction Sometimes in life you have an experience that is so amazing, you just have to share it! When I published my first book, my life changed. Six books later, not a day goes by that I don't receive a text or email from someone who tells me how my story has helped or inspired them. I am humbled by their accolades. I have also had the pleasure of meeting a number of young Latinas, once like me, setting forth in the world full of promise and dreams. Often times they don't have a role model or mentor to guide them in the right direction towards success; they experience financial difficulties or lack of support. It was witnessing these challenges that inspired me to start The Fig Factor Foundation to help them "unleash the amazing." In addition, through my company, JJR Marketing, I have met many strong, inspiring Latinas who came from a similar place, yet persevered through language barriers, cultural and educational obstacles as well as their own self-limiting beliefs to rise to positions of authority and success. One day I realized that theirs were the stories that needed to be told. Their stories will provide hope and inspiration to the next generation of Latinas that need to believe they could achieve their own success. I am proud to be a catalyst to capture the beauty and essence of these incredible Hispanic women while creating an emotional touchstone for their younger Hispanic sisters. For while I believe everyone has a story to tell, the reality is that becoming a book author can be an intimidating prospect. I completely understand that the expense, time commitment and process of authorship can be completely discouraging. That's why "Today's Inspired Latina" is such an important project. As contributors, these wonderful Latinas are able to impart their story, grow their dreams and activate the next generation and every individual reader. These authors have crossed more than borders to create a place of contentment in the world. I'm confident everyone can learn from their experiences, whether or not you are Latina. Jacqueline Camacho

Book excerpt: Latinos across the United States are redefining identities, pushing boundaries, and awakening politically in powerful and surprising ways. Many—Afrolatino, indigenous, Muslim, queer and undocumented, living in large cities and small towns—are voices who have been chronically overlooked in how the diverse population of almost sixty million Latinos in the U.S. has been represented. No longer. In this empowering cross-country travelogue, journalist and activist Paola Ramos embarks on a journey to find the communities of people defining the controversial term, “Latinx.” She introduces us to the indigenous Oaxacans who rebuilt the main street in a post-industrial town in upstate New York, the “Las Poderosas” who fight for reproductive rights in Texas, the musicians in Milwaukee whose beats reassure others of their belonging, as well as drag queens, environmental activists, farmworkers, and the migrants detained at our border. Drawing on intensive field research as well as her own personal story, Ramos chronicles how “Latinx” has given rise to a sense of collectivity and solidarity among Latinos unseen in this country for decades. A vital and inspiring work of reportage, Finding Latinx calls on all of us to expand our understanding of what it means to be Latino and what it means to be American. The first step towards change, writes Ramos, is for us to recognize who we are.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Juanita lives in New York and is Mexican. Felipe lives in Chicago and is Panamanian, Venezuelan, and black. Michiko lives in Los Angeles and is Peruvian and Japanese. Each of them is Latino. Thirteen young Latinos and Latinas living in America are introduced in this book celebrating the rich diversity of the Latino and Latina experience in the United States. Free-verse fictional narratives from the perspective of each youth provide specific stories and circumstances for the reader to better understand the Latino people’s quest for identity. Each profile is followed by nonfiction prose that further clarifies the character’s background and history, touching upon important events in the history of the Latino American people, such as the Spanish Civil War, immigration to the US, and the internment of Latinos with Japanese ancestry during World War II. Alma Flor Ada and F. Isabel Campoy’s informational yet heartwarming text provides a resource for young Latino readers to see themselves, while also encouraging non-Latino children to understand the breadth and depth of the contributions made by Latinos in the US. Caldecott Medalist David Diaz’s hand-cut illustrations are bold and striking, perfectly complementing the vibrant stories in the book. YES! WE ARE LATINOS stands alone in its presentation of the broad spectrum of Latino culture and will appeal to readers of fiction and nonfiction.
