Paper Abstract: Discusses discrmination and activism. Tomas Rivera's novel of a Mexican American migrant family. Chicano political activism of the 1970s. Its link to the 1930s and 1940s. Youth gangs, labor unrest, Sleepy Lagoon Murder trial, and Zoot Suit Riots of Los Angeles. Use of Chicano population as a scapegoat. Current Latin Renaissance movement. Paper Introduction: Tomas Rivera, like many in his generation, such as Gary Soto and Rolando Hinojosa, grew up in the 1950s in a world that was 180 degrees different from the "Ozzie and Harriet" or "Leave it to Beaver" world portrayed on TV. As adults, these authors, as well as other Mexican-Americans, later grew up to take part in the political activism of the 1970s by portraying the everyday life that they experienced for the benefit of those who lived that life, as well as for the benefit of those who needed to know that another type of America existed (Cárdenas de Dwyer, 1980). In 1970, Tomás Rivera published his original Spanish-language ...y no se lo tragó la tierra. Then, in 1995, due to the release of the movie, "…and the earth did not swallow him", a new translation of the book into English by Evangelina Vigil-Piñón was published. The original edition won the first national Read the Entire Essay. If this paper is not what you are looking for, you can search again: or We can write a Custom Essay for you. | ||

Paper Abstract: Critical review of work on coming-of-age of Latina, themes of Amer. Dream, freedom, materialism, feminism. Paper Introduction: Sandra Cisneros, in her novel The House on Mango Street, portrays the American Dream as alive and well, although in a new and feminist form. If one means by that Dream primarily the opportunity to advance from a place of poverty to a place of economic success, then the Dream only partially applies to Esperanza, the book's protagonist. Esperanza does have material dreams as well as more artistic and spiritual ones, but even her material desires are rooted in her fundamental dream of being free from racial, social and sexual oppression, free to be her most individualistic and creative self. Despite the fact that her dreams are, indeed, self-oriented, they are not merely selfish but are part of her sense of commitment to a larger community. Cisneros's novel covers a number of years in the life and coming-of-age of Esperanza, a young girl growing up in Chicago. Read the Entire Essay.

Paper Abstract: Undereducation, dropout rate, gender factors, socioeconomics, school environmental problems, compared to other ethnic groups. Paper Introduction: Although Hispanic students have made important educational gains in the past two decades, their high school dropout rate remains a cause for concern. With the exception of Native Americans, Hispanic students have the highest dropout rate of any racial/ethnic group in the United States. The risk factors for dropping out of high school, e.g., poverty, limited English language proficiency, and work or family responsibilities, are all prevalent in the Hispanic population. Hispanics in the United States are a diverse population group. The term "Hispanic" is generally applied to those whose origin or country of ancestry is Mexico, Puerto Rico, Spain or the Spanish-speaking countries in South America, Central America, or the Caribbean. Also included in the term "Hispanic" are people of mixed Hispanic heritage. The major Hispanic subgroups- Read the Entire Essay.

Paper Abstract: Reviews work on early 20th Cent. Mexican-Amer. culture, immigration, employment, education. Paper Introduction: Ricardo Romo's History of a Barrio: East Los Angeles examines the wave of Mexican immigration into the U.S. during the early part of the twentieth century. He covers the various factors affecting the development of Mexican American communities; more specifically, he examines the resourcefulness of Mexican Americans who attempted to sustain a culture within a culture in the face of economic, social, and political discrimination. Los Angeles has always depended on Mexican labor, as Romo frequently points out. The Mexican immigrants were good enough as cheap sources of labor, even if they were natively inferior to Anglos, as the commonly accepted sentiment in the early 1900s would have it. The economic interests of north-of-the-border industrialists and land barons were bolstered by inexpensive Read the Entire Essay.

The study will include consideration of assimilation, maintenance of cultural identity, marriage and family life, education, work, and other aspects of life for Mexican Migrants after the Revolution as described in Villasenor's history of the two sides of his family. In general, the life style options for Mexican immigrants to the United States after the 1910 Revolution were very limited. At the same time, the fortitude and determination of the Mexicans to maintain and nourish their culture and sense of community remained strong. They took advantage of the opportunities which were available. The sense of endurance and celebration, along Read the Entire Essay.

Paper Abstract: [The Labyrinth of Solitude]. Mexican character & identity is explored; masks & symbolism. Paper Introduction: As chronicled in Octavio Paz' masterwork, The Labyrinth of Solitude, the image of the labyrinth--with its many mazes, passages, lurking dangers, and mysteries--becomes the ultimate metaphor for study of the Mexican people. "The history of Mexico is the history of a man seeking his parentage, his origins." In his book, Paz exposes the many sides that make up the people and culture of Mexico. The common image he uses is the mask that both hides the wearer from recognition, and yet links him or her with a deep and ancient past. To better understand the Mexican people, Paz first takes the reader on a journey of extremes. From the relative quiet and desert of Mexico itself, to the hustle and bustle of Los Angeles. Even in the 1950s and 1960s, Los Angeles beckoned to well over a million persons of Mexican descent. This relocated Mexican Read the Entire Essay.

Paper Abstract: Examines health perception & management, nutrition, activity/exercise, cultural factors, family, sexuality, stress, values. Paper Introduction: The purpose of this research is to examine Marjory Gordon's taxonomy of functional health-care areas as they relate to the Mexican-American culture of the current period. The plan of the research will be to set forth each of the areas in turn, and to discuss the form and substance of professional literature that has treated the areas in question with specific reference to Mexican-Americans. Health Perception/Health Management. An important element of health perception in the Mexican-American community emerges as body mass and weight. This has implications for overall health management because of the connection that perceptions of health have with other aspects of health; in other words, health perception has fundamental importance to general good health.

Paper Abstract: Evolution, constitutional issues, voting rights & registration, reapportionment, socioeconomics, group dynamics. Paper Introduction: Hispanics are generally regarded as having been the first settlers of the southwestern United States, with some communities dating back to the early 1500s (Hispanics, 1984, p. 5). Nevertheless, Hispanic Americans have historically been excluded from the political process of the nation. Hispanic Americans, along with all racial minorities, were guaranteed a constitutional right to political participation during the years immediately following the Civil War. However, the rapid spread of white settlements throughout the United States in the late nineteenth century caused Hispanics to undergo conditions of "dispossession, subjugation, and economic exploitation" (Hispanics, 1984, p. 9). As a result of these conditions, Hispanics have been grossly underrepresented throughout the history of American politics. As noted by former federal Read the Entire Essay.

Paper Abstract: Impact of this ethnic group on history & development of state. Social & political issues, majority opposition, bilingual education, economics. Paper Introduction: The purpose of this research is to examine the impact of Spanish-speaking groups on California politics. The plan of the research will be to set forth the various ethnic groups located in the state of California whose first language is Spanish, and then to discuss the influence of such groups in state politics, their contributions to the state, and the ways in which improving their position politically may affect the course of social and political development in the state. The influence of Spanish-speaking groups on the history of California is evident in the predominance of Spanish place names throughout the state. These names reflect the work of Spanish-speaking immigrants who helped develop California's economic base. Indeed, it is well to remember that California was first settled by Spaniards and that the Spanish Empire ceded control to Read the Entire Essay.
