- Children of the River
173,95 kr. Two years after the story of unaccompanied minors at the Southern U.S. - Mexico border broke worldwide, the humanitarian crisis is still on-going in spite of the very clear fact that the media attention on the crisis has largely dissipated. The refugees continue to struggle through a long, arduous, and perilous journey to reach their promised land. It is a movement of humanity of epic proportions which will change the face of America-mostly for the better-as most influxes of immigrants in America's past have done. This is truly a crisis like few that we have seen. With this publication we, the editors, artists, writers, poets, photographers, and contributors hope to give pause to our busy, fast-paced lives and acknowledge that these children and mothers are people who deserve at the very least our compassion, and at the most our refuge.

- A Dialogue about New Chican@ Identities
163,95 kr. This book examines the identities of Chican@ in a post-9/11 America. In an effort to not hijack and prescribe new Chican@ identities from one author's perspective, this book is constructed in dialogue format with 4 different perspectives and 4 different approaches. We ask the questions: What has triggered such an interest in Chican@ in recent times? What types of poetry, writing, and art is being created and what are the social factors that have led to new Chican@ identities? ¬ is book addresses four di erent identities within the "Chican@" identity such as xicanindio (Carmona), inmigrante (Lima), poch@ (Chavarria), & the fluid Chican@ (Sanchez) as a jumping off point to discuss all that is happening currently.
