Cynthia's Psalms

Love Notes to the King

By: Cynthia C. Douglas

CYNTHIA'S PSALMS is a journal of love notes and poems inspired during a season of fasting and prayer in preparation for Cynthia's consecration into the fivefold ministry. Each day (for 40 days) after spending quiet time ( at least an hour) in His Presence, she wrote a love note to God emphasizing: Love Passion Intimacy His Lovingkindness His Majesty His Sovereignty His Royalty His Kingship His Kingdom There were times when His passionate Loving Presence overshadowed her so strongly that she could not seem to write fast enough ,getting the words from her heart, through the pen, onto the paper. Cynthia's ultimate desire is to be just as David was, " A woman after God's own heart." Loving Him with all of her heart, mind and soul, brimming over with passion, hungering and thirsting for more and more intimacy with The King!

Agent of Change

Adela Sloss-Vento

By: Cynthia E. Orozco

The essayist Adela Sloss-Vento (1901–1998) was a powerhouse of activism in South Texas’s Lower Rio Grande Valley throughout the Mexican American civil rights movement beginning in 1920 and the subsequent Chicano movement of the 1960s and 1970s. At last presenting the full story of Sloss-Vento’s achievements, Agent of Change revives a forgotten history of a major female Latina leader. Bringing to light the economic and political transformations that swept through South Texas in the 1920s as ranching declined and agribusiness proliferated, Cynthia E. Orozco situates Sloss-Vento’s early years within the context of the Jim Crow/Juan Crow era. Recounting Sloss-Vento’s rise to prominence as a public intellectual, Orozco highlights a partnership with Alonso S. Perales, the principal founder of the League of United Latin American Citizens. Agent of Change explores such contradictions as Sloss-Vento’s tolerance of LULAC’s gender-segregated chapters, even though the activist was an outspoken critic of male privilege in the home and a decidedly progressive wife and mother. Inspiring and illuminating, this is a complete portrait of a savvy, brazen critic who demanded reform on both sides of the US-Mexico border.

No Mexicans, Women, or Dogs Allowed

The Rise of the Mexican American Civil Rights Movement

By: Cynthia E. Orozco

“A refreshing and pathbreaking [study] of the roots of Mexican American social movement organizing in Texas with new insights on the struggles of women” (Devon Peña, Professor of American Ethnic Studies, University of Washington). Historian Cynthia E. Orozco presents a comprehensive study of the League of United Lantin-American Citizens, with an in-depth analysis of its origins. Founded by Mexican American men in 1929, LULAC is often judged harshly according to Chicano nationalist standards of the late 1960s and 1970s. Drawing on extensive archival research, No Mexicans, Women, or Dogs Allowed presents LULAC in light of its early twentieth-century context. Orozco argues that perceptions of LULAC as an assimilationist, anti-Mexican, anti-working class organization belie the group's early activism. Supplemented by oral history, this sweeping study probes LULAC's predecessors, such as the Order Sons of America, blending historiography and cultural studies. Against a backdrop of the Mexican Revolution, World War I, gender discrimination, and racial segregation, No Mexicans, Women, or Dogs Allowed recasts LULAC at the forefront of civil rights movements in America.
