EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT

Autor: Nayeli Pereznegrón

We often hear or say “everything will be alright” as a form of encouragement when someone is going through hardship. However, have we ever really thought about who we are putting our trust in? This phrase becomes much more meaningful when said by a two-year old boy. At age one, Luis Pablo was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia m7, a very aggressive form of cancer which presented a big challenge to his doctors. His case was always considered high risk and defied all medical standards. The need for blood and platelet donors motivated Luis Pablo’s parents to share his story on social media. This started a movement of love and solidarity that made everyone involved understand that we can only be certain that everything will be alright when we fully trust God and put everything in His hands, because it is all part of a perfect plan.

Love, Starboy

Autor: Henry Lyra

Starboy just graduated high school and was on his way to college with his best friend, Moonkid. That’s until a tragic car crash and a head injury sent Starboy to a coma and then permanent brain damage. His personality changed, slowly regressing to babyhood. He begins writing letters to Moonkid telling him how he’s regressing every day. Suddenly college and grown-up’s life are out the window with his developing infantile behavior. His life now revolves around diaper changes, baby bottles, toys, cartoons, and spoon-feeding as every day he acts more like an infant. Those letters and his new relationship with his family and friends help him realize that being a baby might not be the worst thing ever. Maybe it can be a blessing in disguise.

My Father Envies Me (English and Spanish Version)

Autor: Mayke R.

Número de Páginas: 212

My dad envies me. I've been an orphan since I was eight months old. Unfortunately, I was mistreated by a bad and envious father, and my whole life has been a torment with him. I will describe, in this book, my father as the person who has done the most harm to me throughout my life, for I have never encountered another person like him. Throughout my life, he has sabotaged my achievements, put me wrong with all the family and friends, and never wanted me to get ahead because he feels less than me. Of course, I have forgiven him for all the evil he has done to me, and I ask God to give him good things despite all the damage he has done to me and even though he has never asked me for an apology. I hope that no one will suffer what I have suffered and that there are no more other fathers like him.

La Universidad, como el dios Jano, presenta dos caras de un único rostro: una mira hacia la investigación e innovación (sean de naturaleza formal, de contenidos o ambos) y la otra hacia los discentes a quienes transmite los logros hallados en unas aulas cada vez más tecnologizadas. Queda claro, por tanto, que la investigación y la docencia son nucleares en la misión de la Academia y en su visión destaca la mejora de la sociedad de la que se nutre y a la que sirve. En esta ecuación binómica tenemos que añadir indefectiblemente el elemento de la divulgación de estos nuevos contenidos y estructuras, de manera que libros como el presente, junto con los demás que conforman la colección Estudios Aranzadi especializada en Ciencias Sociales y Ates y Humanidades así como de su Docencia, suponen el último jalón en el que la Universidad muestra ante todos, expertos y público general, su labor especializada. Los capítulos que conforman el presente título, incluidos en la colección Estudios Aranzadi, han superado el imprescindible requisito que certifica la calidad científica de los resultados plasmados: el de la doble revisión por pares ciegos (peer review) lo que...

We the Dreamers

Autor: Josefina Vázquez Mota

DREAMer: a young visionary, an undocumented immigrant, who wants to achieve the American Dream. As of August 2016 it was estimated that some 35 million Mexicans were living in the United States, 23.5 million of whom were born in the United States and 11.5 million in Mexico. Of the latter, only 5 million are undocumented and of them, 1.3 million are considered DREAMers: young people who were taken to the United States by their parents when they were children, who grew up and were educated in this country, and who -because of their illegal status- face daunting obstacles to develop professionally. This, however, does not prevent them from dreaming. In We the DREAMers, Josefina Vázquez Mota explores the laws and statistics, and above all highlights the narratives and emotions behind the life stories of these DREAMers whose only objectiveis to fulfill their dreams. Their testimonies offer a kaleidoscope of viewpoints, pinpointing many obstacles. Nevertheless, they are voices of young people who have not given up; instead they have created or joined activist groups alongside many other people who, like them, just want to be heard and acknowledged. This volume introduces you to some of ...

Palabras de Los Seres Verdaderos

Autor: Carlos Montemayor

Número de Páginas: 304

As part of the larger, ongoing movement throughout Latin America to reclaim non-Hispanic cultural heritages and identities, indigenous writers in Mexico are reappropriating the written word in their ancestral tongues and in Spanish. As a result, the long-marginalized, innermost feelings, needs, and worldviews of Mexico's ten to twenty million indigenous peoples are now being widely revealed to the Western societies with which these peoples coexist. To contribute to this process and serve as a bridge of intercultural communication and understanding, this groundbreaking, three-volume anthology gathers works by the leading generation of writers in thirteen Mexican indigenous languages: Nahuatl, Maya, Tzotzil, Tzeltal, Tojolabal, Tabasco Chontal, Purepecha, Sierra Zapoteco, Isthmus Zapoteco, Mazateco, Ñahñu, Totonaco, and Huichol. Volume Three contains plays by six Mexican indigenous writers. Their plays appear first in their native language, followed by English and Spanish translations. Montemayor and Frischmann have abundantly annotated the Spanish, English, and indigenous-language texts and added glossaries and essays that introduce the work of each playwright and discuss the...
