Download or read book Our Rightful Share written by Aline Helg and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2018-08-25 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Our Rightful Share, Aline Helg examines the issue of race in Cuban society, politics, and ideology during the island's transition from a Spanish colony to an independent state. She challenges Cuba's well-established myth of racial equality and shows that racism is deeply rooted in Cuban creole society. Helg argues that despite Cuba's abolition of slavery in 1886 and its winning of independence in 1902, Afro-Cubans remained marginalized in all aspects of society. After the wars for independence, in which they fought en masse, Afro-Cubans demanded change politically by forming the first national black party in the Western Hemisphere. This challenge met with strong opposition from the white Cuban elite, culminating in the massacre of thousands of Afro-Cubans in 1912. The event effectively ended Afro-Cubans' political organization along racial lines, and Helg stresses that although some cultural elements of African origin were integrated into official Cuban culture, true racial equality has remained elusive.

Download or read book Decidí Vivir written by Julie Hersh and published by Greenleaf Book Group. This book was released on 2014-09-23 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decidí Vivir es una historia de esperanza. La historia sobre mi experiencia personal con la depresión clínica se lee como una novela vertiginosa, con personajes que encantan y frustran. El contenido es duro, pero he aprendido que mi historia está lejos de ser única. La depresión es una enfermedad muy extendida e insidiosa. Mi libro se refiere también a mi búsqueda de la identidad. Después de dejar el mundo de los negocios para cuidar a mis niños pequeños y abuelos, así también como para adaptarme a una cultura muy diferente a la cual me había educado, me evaporé en mi entorno, ya sin estar segura de quién era yo. ¿Cuál era mi propósito? ¿Qué es lo que quería? Estas preguntas me afectaban y ponían en marcha mi tendencia genética a la depresión. La mayoría de las personas responde a estas preguntas sin tener que pasar por la sala de psiquiatría, pero mi camino estaba lleno de baches; la sala de psiquiatría fue sólo una de las muchas paradas. Cada vez que hablo de mi experiencia, conozco gente que a menudo se encuentra a un paso de la devastación mental o incluso del suicidio. Las historias sobre madres, padres, hermanos, hermanas, esposos y niños hacen que me pregunte: ¿Podríamos haber evitado esas muertes? Si estamos más conscientes, podremos ver las primeras señales de la depresión y salvar una vida? Creo que sí. Con esta convicción, ofrezco mi historia. Las ganancias de las ventas de este libro serán donadas a los programas y la investigación para luchar contra las enfermedades mentales.
Book Synopsis The Structure of Cuban History by : Louis A. Pérez Jr.
Download or read book The Structure of Cuban History written by Louis A. Pérez Jr. and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2013-09-16 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this expansive and contemplative history of Cuba, Louis A. Perez Jr. argues that the country's memory of the past served to transform its unfinished nineteenth-century liberation project into a twentieth-century revolutionary metaphysics. The ideal of national sovereignty that was anticipated as the outcome of Spain's defeat in 1898 was heavily compromised by the U.S. military intervention that immediately followed. To many Cubans it seemed almost as if the new nation had been overtaken by another country's history. Memory of thwarted independence and aggrievement--of the promise of sovereignty ever receding into the future--contributed to the development in the early republic of a political culture shaped by aspirations to fulfill the nineteenth-century promise of liberation, and it was central to the claim of the revolution of 1959 as the triumph of history. In this capstone book, Perez discerns in the Cuban past the promise that decisively shaped the character of Cuban nationality.
Book Synopsis Mexico at the World's Fairs by : Mauricio Tenorio-Trillo
Download or read book Mexico at the World's Fairs written by Mauricio Tenorio-Trillo and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2024-06-12 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This intriguing study of Mexico's participation in world's fairs from 1889 to 1929 explores Mexico's self-presentation at these fairs as a reflection of the country's drive toward nationalization and a modernized image. Mauricio Tenorio-Trillo contrasts Mexico's presence at the 1889 Paris fair—where its display was the largest and most expensive Mexico has ever mounted—with Mexico's presence after the 1910 Mexican Revolution at fairs in Rio de Janeiro in 1922 and Seville in 1929. Rather than seeing the revolution as a sharp break, Tenorio-Trillo points to important continuities between the pre- and post-revolution periods. He also discusses how, internationally, the character of world's fairs was radically transformed during this time, from the Eiffel Tower prototype, encapsulating a wondrous symbolic universe, to the Disneyland model of commodified entertainment. Drawing on cultural, intellectual, urban, literary, social, and art histories, Tenorio-Trillo's thorough and imaginative study presents a broad cultural history of Mexico from 1880 to 1930, set within the context of the origins of Western nationalism, cosmopolitanism, and modernism. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1997.

Book Synopsis The Betrothed of Death by : José E. Álvarez
Download or read book The Betrothed of Death written by José E. Álvarez and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2001-01-30 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following her defeat in the Spanish-American War of 1898, Spain shifted her colonial focus to her Protectorate in northern Morocco. When Spanish conscripts began to fight and to die by the thousands, political fallout forced the government to create a new unit of professional soldiers. This unit would serve the dual function of providing fighting men for Moroccan service, while sparing the lives of conscripted men. Under its founder, José Millán Astray, and his deputy, Francisco Franco, the Spanish Foreign Legion would quickly become the spearhead for Spain's army in Africa. This is the story of the creation, organization, and combat role of the Legion in its formative years from 1919 to 1927. Based upon archival sources in Madrid, Segovia, and Ceuta, this is the first and most complete history in English or Spanish of the early years of the Spanish Foreign Legion. The unit was instrumental in crushing Abd-el-Krim's rebellion against Spanish colonial authority. When the Riffians annihilated the army of General Silvestre at Annual in 1921 and were poised to attack the Spanish enclave of Melilla, it was the arrival of the Legion that pacified its panic-stricken citizens. The force would be in the vanguard of all major offensives undertaken in recapturing the territory lost in 1921, and its amphibious landing at Alhucemas Bay in 1925 marked the beginning of the end for the Rif Rebellion.
