ISBN: 9780415646680 / Angielski / Miękka / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

They slowly pushed their borders to the north, establishing little villages along the Rio Grande and dozens of its tributaries.

During their long journey, these unique people retained a strong sense of their Spanish identity and tradition....

ISBN: 9780199977901 / Angielski / Miękka / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Since 1991, surveys conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have shown that Latina teenagers attempt suicide at a far higher rate than other American youth in the same age group; one in seven Latinas attempt suicide while one in ten black and white girls do.

Read the media coverage of the increasingly heated debate around immigration reform in the United States: two dominant narratives emerge.

Left-leaning journalists, on the other hand, foreground victimization, emphasizing the plight of immigrants, stripping them of their agency. Neither captures the range of experiences within undocumented immigrant communities, and...
