| ellis island historia en español: Una vez fui tú (Once I Was You Spanish Edition) Maria Hinojosa, 2020-09-15 “El punto de vista de María es poderoso y vital. Hace años, cuando In the Heights empezaba a presentarse en teatros off-Broadway, María corrió la voz en nuestra comunidad para que apoyáramos este nuevo musical que trataba sobre nuestros vecindarios. Ella ha sido una campeona de nuestros triunfos, una crítica de nuestros detractores y una fuerza clave para enfrentar y corregir los errores de nuestra sociedad. Cuando María habla, estoy listo para escuchar y aprender de ella.” —Lin-Manuel Miranda La periodista ganadora de cuatro premios Emmy y presentadora de Latino USA de NPR, María Hinojosa, cuenta la historia de la inmigración en los Estados Unidos a través de las experiencias de su familia y décadas de hacer reportajes, con lo cual crea un riguroso retrato de un país en crisis. María Hinojosa es una periodista galardonada que ha colaborado con las cadenas más respetadas y se ha distinguido por realizar reportajes con un toque humano. En estas memorias escritas con gran belleza, nos relata la historia de la política de inmigración de los EE.UU. que nos ha llevado al punto en que estamos hoy, al mismo tiempo que nos comparte su historia profundamente personal. Durante treinta años, María Hinojosa ha informado sobre historias y comunidades en los Estados Unidos que a menudo son ignoradas por los principales medios de comunicación. La autora de bestsellers Julia Álvarez la ha llamado “una de las líderes culturales más importantes, respetadas y queridas de la comunidad Latinx”. En Una vez fui tú, María nos comparte su experiencia personal de haber crecido como mexicanoamericana en el sur de Chicago y documentar el páramo existencial de los campos de detención de inmigrantes para los medios de comunicación que a menudo cuestionaban su trabajo. En estas páginas, María ofrece un relato personal y revelador de cómo la retórica en torno a la inmigración no solo ha influido en las actitudes de los estadounidenses hacia los extranjeros, sino que también ha permitido la negligencia intencional y el lucro a expensas de las poblaciones más vulnerables de nuestro país, lo que ha propiciado el sistema resquebrajado que tenemos hoy en día. Estas memorias honestas y estremecedoras crean un vívido retrato de cómo llegamos aquí y lo que significa ser una superviviente, una feminista, una ciudadana y una periodista que hace valer su propia voz mientras lucha por la verdad. Una vez fui tú es un llamado urgente a los compatriotas estadounidenses para que abran los ojos a la crisis de la inmigración y entiendan que nos afecta a todos. También disponible en inglés como Once I Was You. |
| ellis island historia en español: Imagenes de los Estados Unidos Barry Moreno, 2016 Los Estados Unidos es considerado el principal refugio para extranjeros en el mundo, y ningún sitio en todo la nación lo simboliza mejor que Ellis Island. Más de 12 millones de inmigrantes, de casi cada nacionalidad y raza, entraron en el país a través de las salas y pasillos de Ellis Island en busca de nuevas experiencias en América del Norte. Con una extraordinaria colección de fotografías de los siglos diecinueve y veinte, Ellis Island guía al lector a través de la fascinante historia de esta pequeña isla del puerto de Nueva York. Haciendo un recorrido desde su época pre-migratoria, cuando era una de las islas del puerto donde se podían encontrar ostras, pasando por sus maravillosos años en los que funcionó como la estación principal de la Oficina de Inmigración de los Estados Unidos, hasta su situación actual como el museo más grande del Servicio de Parques Nacionales. |

| ellis island historia en español: Yes! We Are Latinos Alma Flor Ada, F. Isabel Campoy, 2016-03-01 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. |

| ellis island historia en español: Nuestras Almas Migrantes (Our Migrant Souls - Spanish Edition) Héctor Tobar, 2024-09-24 Ganador del Kirkus Prize para Literatura No Ficción Nominado al Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence en Literatura No Ficción Entre los mejores libros del año: The New York Times • Time • Kirkus Reviews • NPR • BookPage Con su publicación original en tapa dura, Our Migrant Souls abrió nuevos caminos con su poderoso examen de las fuerzas sociales y políticas que moldean la identidad latina. Ahora en su primera traducción completa, Nuestras almas migrantes lleva el análisis definitivo y sin precedentes de Héctor Tobar sobre el significado de lo “latino” a los lectores de habla hispana, con la promesa de tender puentes entre generaciones y traspasar fronteras, ya que el libro sigue encabezando una conversación nacional muy necesaria sobre el pasado, el presente y el futuro de lo que significa ser estadounidense. Inspirado en los escritos de James Baldwin que abordan el papel de la raza en Estados Unidos, en las conversaciones de Tobar con sus estudiantes latinos y, por supuesto, en sus propias experiencias de vida y en las de su familia, Nuestras almas migrantes ofrece un valioso análisis de lo que significa ser latino en los Estados Unidos de hoy. En 2023, entre otros galardones, el libro ganó el Premio Kirkus de No Ficción, y fue seleccionado como Libro Notable del New York Times, uno de los Libros de Lectura Obligatoria de la revista Time y uno de los libros favoritos del año de NPR que “nos abre los ojos” y es “verdaderamente genial”. Al instante se convirtió en una lectura esencial, un libro icónico que ya pasa de lector a lector, provocando animadas y emotivas conversaciones en salas de conferencias, aulas de clase, salas de juntas y comedores. Por supuesto, se trata de una conversación que tiene lugar en más de un idioma a la vez, y es un libro que exige ser leído y comentado en inglés y en español. Ahora, gracias al trabajo de Tobar y de las aclamadas traductoras Laura Muñoz Bonilla y Tiziana Laudato, eso es posible. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION: WINNER OF THE KIRKUS PRIZE FOR NONFICTION Long-listed for the Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction Named One of The New York Times’ 100 Notable Books of 2023 One of Time’s 100 Must-Read Books of 2023 | A Top Ten Book of 2023 at Chicago Public Library A new book by the Pulitzer Prize–winning writer about the twenty-first-century Latino experience and identity. With its original hardcover publication, Our Migrant Souls broke new ground in its powerful examination of the social and political forces that shape Latino identity. Now, in its first full translation, Nuestras Almas Migrantes brings Héctor Tobar’s definitive and unprecedented analysis of the meaning of “Latino” to Spanish-language readers, promising to bridge generations and cross borders as the book continues to spearhead a much-needed national conversation about the past, present, and future of what it means to be an American. Inspired by James Baldwin’s writing wrestling with the role of race in the United States, along with Tobar’s own conversations with his Latino students and, of course, by his and his family’s own life experiences, Our Migrant Souls provides an invaluable reckoning with what it means to be Latino in the United States today. In 2023, among other honors, the book won the Kirkus Prize for Nonfiction, and was selected as a New York Times Notable Book, one of Time magazine’s Must-Read Books, and one of NPR’s favorite “eye-opening” and “seriously great” books of the year. It instantly became essential reading, an iconic book already being passed from reader to reader, provoking lively, emotional discussion in lecture halls, classrooms, boardrooms, and dining rooms. This is a conversation, of course, that takes place in more than one language at a time, and is a book that demands to be read and talked about in English and in Spanish. Now, thanks to the work of Tobar and the acclaimed translators Laura Muñoz Bonilla and Tiziana Laudato—to be published alongside the much-anticipated paperback of the original edition and in time for National Hispanic Heritage Month—eso es posible. |

| ellis island historia en español: El Terrible: Life and Labor in Pueblonuevo, 1887-1939 Patricia A. Schechter, 2024-07-12 This book is a biography of Pueblonuevo del Terrible, a mining town located in Andalusia, Spain. Based on previously unexamined sources, the study paints a fresh portrait of industrial workers and their families in Córdoba province, enriching our understanding of this mostly agricultural region. Previous studies of laboring communities in Spain have identified radical workers, miners among them, as a destabilizing element due to their insurgent protest activity, including lethal violence. This study, by contrast, describes both worker activism and cross-class organizing as constructive, not destructive, and aimed at integration into Spanish society. Economically, the mining zone was dominated by a French company in the Rothschild portfolio. But by running their own city, waging peaceful labor strikes, raising a church, building housing, and honoring their dead, residents turned a quasi-colonial outpost into a pueblo worth defending, and they rallied in defense of the Republic at the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War. In the making of Pueblonuevo del Terrible, Spanish men and women contended with the perils of mine work, the jolts of industrial capitalism, creeping fascism, and civil war. As such, this book tells a village-scale story of global events that defined the twentieth century. |

In luminous paintings and arresting poems, two of children’s literature’s top African-American scholars track Arturo Schomburg’s quest to correct history. |
| ellis island historia en español: Kaia and the Bees Maribeth Boelts, 2020-03-10 The author of Those Shoes and an award-winning illustrator team up for the story of a girl who tries to overcome her fear of bees to see how amazing they are. Kaia is the brave type. Like hottest-hot-pepper brave. But there is one thing that scares her: BEES! And right now, thousands of bees live on her roof because Kaia’s dad is a beekeeper. Her dad says that the world needs bees and that’s why they are beekeepers. But only he goes on the roof, not Kaia — unless she can find a way to be the brave girl she always says she is. Against a sunny city setting, author Maribeth Boelts and illustrator Angela Dominguez depict Kaia’s small courageous steps — and her tiny insect neighbors — with great empathy and charm. Buzzing with storytime potential, Kaia and the Bees is an honest and relatable tale about bravery and compassion, as well as the importance of bees to our world. |

| ellis island historia en español: ¿Quién es el padre? Nara Milanich, 2023-04-25 Una camioneta con la leyenda ¿Quién es tu padre? recorre hoy las calles de Nueva York ofreciendo el test de ADN a transeúntes con dudas sobre su identidad o la de sus hijos. Durante milenios, esa pregunta fue un enigma de resolución imposible y los misterios de la identidad del padre biológico aportaban la materia prima del melodrama. Sin embargo, algo empezó a cambiar en la década de 1920, con los primeros métodos para evaluar la filiación. Con el descubrimiento de la huella genética en los años ochenta, fue posible conocer al padre con un 99,9% de certeza. Pero ¿hasta qué punto la paternidad puede reducirse a una relación biológica en la que la ciencia tiene la última palabra? A partir de casos resonantes en los estrados judiciales y en la prensa a lo largo del siglo XX, en los que se buscaba dirimir parentescos, exponer relaciones adúlteras, localizar padres perdidos, revelar la condición birracial de un bebé o configurar leyes de herencia o de inmigración, Nara Milanich reconstruye la historia de la paternidad moderna, en una escala transatlántica fascinante que la lleva de los Estados Unidos a Italia, de Alemania a Brasil y la Argentina. Así, va mostrando cómo, en función de necesidades familiares, patrimoniales o estatales, aparecen nuevos métodos para determinar la paternidad –análisis de grupos sanguíneos, examen minucioso de los bucles de las huellas dactilares, de los pliegues de la oreja o la conformación de los dientes, de la textura del cabello o el color de la piel–, y cómo al mismo tiempo persisten tradiciones y creencias más antiguas, que entran en disputa y contradicción con el saber de los expertos. ¿Quién es el padre, finalmente? ¿El que dictamina la ciencia? ¿O el hombre casado con la madre? ¿O quien asume la responsabilidad por la crianza y el cuidado? ¿Y quién tiene el poder de decidirlo: los individuos, las comunidades, el Estado o las empresas con fines de lucro? En diálogo con nuevas perspectivas sobre la familia y el género, este libro revela la existencia de múltiples paternidades (biológica, afectiva, social, legal) en conflicto entre sí, y arroja luz para pensar los dilemas de las tecnologías de reproducción asistida y de prácticas como la adopción transnacional. Pero sobre todo apuesta a arrebatarle la exclusividad a la biología para restituirle historia y complejidad a la pregunta por el padre: ya no importa solo quién es, sino quién queremos que sea y qué es, en el fondo, la paternidad. |

| ellis island historia en español: Interpreting Food at Museums and Historic Sites Michelle Moon, 2015-11-19 Food is such a friendly topic that it’s often thought of as a “hook” for engaging visitors – a familiar way into other topics, or a sensory element to round out a living history interpretation. But it’s more than just a hook – it’s a topic all its own, with its own history and its own uncertain future, deserving of a central place in historic interpretation. With audiences more interested in food than ever before, and new research in food studies bringing interdisciplinary approaches to this complicated but compelling subject, museums and historic sites have an opportunity to draw new audiences and infuse new meaning into their food presentations. You’ll find: A comprehensive, thematic framework of key concepts that will help you contextualize food history interpretations; A concise, evaluative review of the historiography of food interpretation; Case studies featuring the expression of these themes in the real world of museum interpretation; and Best practices for interpreting food. Interpreting Food offers a framework for understanding the big ideas in food history, suggesting best practices for linking objects, exhibits and demonstrations with the larger story of change in food production and consumption over the past two centuries – a story in which your visitors can see themselves, and explore their own relationships to food. This book can help you develop food interpretation with depth and significance, making relevant connections to contemporary issues and visitor interests. |
| ellis island historia en español: Unwritten Afro-Iberian Memories and Histories Yolanda Aixelà-Cabré, 2024-12-16 This book sketches out an innovative Afro-Iberian mosaic that puts forgotten memories and histories into circulation, constructing an Afro-Iberian past that is critical of the cultural racialization of Spaniards and Portuguese. It builds an early late modern and contemporary Afro-Iberian history and approaches African and Maghrebi experiences and memories in order to explain the close relation between race, class, ethnicity and gender in Portugal and Spain between 1850 and 2021. The book approaches the African presence in the Iberian Peninsula by identifying and documenting the traces of these population groups in Spain and Portugal. Cultural Studies, Anthropology and Sociology are some of the fields that weave together two stories in parallel that are little known: the similarities and differences in the social participation of Africans in Spain and Portugal; the degree of influence that the sociopolitical framework has had on Afro-Iberian coexistence and visibility; and the degree of historical depth that Iberian notions have about what is African. The volume promotes the study of unknown experiences of Africans in Europe that may allow future critical comparisons on the construction of what is Euro-African and Afro-European. As a result, the contributions offer an excellent analysis of the similarities and differences between the narratives and practices of African otherness of two Western European countries marked by twilight overseas empires, favouring re-readings of common Iberian-African and Afro-Iberian historical recognition. This book was originally published as a special issue of Ethnic and Racial Studies. |
| ellis island historia en español: Una guía sobre el arte de perderse Rebecca Solnit, 2020-03-25 El acto de perderse tiene muchas dimensiones: si es posible perderse en un territorio, también lo es extraviarse mentalmente, perder el rumbo en sentido figurado y literal, desorientarse y desaparecer. Pero la pérdida puede llevarnos a un hallazgo, y es esta sutil transacción la que Rebecca Solnit explora con inteligencia y sensibilidad en estos ensayos. Desde las expediciones extraviadas en el continente americano hasta la pérdida de la memoria familiar, la representación de lo perdido en la distancia y en el tiempo y la extinción de especies naturales, este libro nos embarca en una travesía afectiva e intelectual por las muchas formas de la perdición y, sin brújula aparente, encuentra a cada paso imágenes y observaciones perdurables. Publicada en inglés en 2005, Una guía sobre el arte de perderse es una de las obras fundamentales de Rebecca Solnit, y se publica por primera vez en español en esta edición. |

While Tía Isa saves, her niece does odd jobs for neighbors so she can add her earnings to the stack. But even with her help, will they ever have enough?

| ellis island historia en español: The History of Migration in Europe Francesca Fauri, 2014-10-03 The History of Migration in Europe belies several myths by arguing, for example, that immobility has not been the normal condition of people before the modern era. Migration (far from being an income-maximizing choice taken by lone individuals) is often a household strategy, and local wages benefit from migration. This book shows how ssuccesses arise when governments liberalize and accompany the international movements of people with appropriate legislation, while failures take place when the legislation enacted is insufficient, belated or ill shaped. Part I of this book addresses mainly methodological issues. Past and present migration is basically defined as a cross-cultural movement; cultural boundaries need prolonged residence and active integrationist policies to allow cross-fertilization of cultures among migrants and non-migrants. Part II collects chapters that examine the role of public bodies with reference to migratory movements, depicting a series of successes and failures in the migration policies through examples drawn from the European Union or single countries. Part III deals with challenges immigrants face once they have settled in their new countries: Do immigrants seek integration in their host culture? Through which channels is such integration achieved, and what roles are played by citizenship and political participation? What is the identity of migrants and their children born in the host countries? This text's originality stems from the fact that it explains the complex nature of migratory movements by incorporating a variety of perspectives and using a multi-disciplinary approach, including economic, political and sociological contributions. |
