Dream in Color

How the Sánchez Sisters Are Making History in Congress

By: Congresswoman Linda Sánchez,Congresswoman Loretta Sánchez

Often considered Congress's "Odd Couple," these warm and witty stories from Congresswomen Linda and Loretta Sánchez are perfect for all young women looking to create a brighter future for themselves—with a foreword from Nancy Pelosi! By sharing moments from their childhood in Southern California, Linda and Loretta pass on the values and traditions they learned from their parents—immigrants from Mexico who, despite not having graduated high school themselves, made sure all seven of their children went on to graduate from college—that enabled them to conquer challenges and make history in Congress. Speaking frankly about their professional highs and lows, successes, and the scandals that constituted their distinguished careers, the Sánchez sisters are a testament to us all that the key to realizing your dreams is, above all else, always being true to yourself.

The Bully of Tenth Street

By: Loretta Acosta

In every school across the United States, at least one child is being bullied, or we have heard of it at least. At times, teachers, parents, or children witness bullies at their school. Usually, the students attention is called in, and the student is reprimanded. This does not stop the behavior though. As educators and parents, its important to look into what is causing childrens or students behaviors. Once we tap into the problem, we could work on changing the behavior. No one likes to be bullied, but it happens. These bullies are the ones that we would love to stomp flat as an ant. Reality sets in, and you cant do it out of fear. Fear is the evil of silence, which only gives the bully more ammunition to carry on with their bulling. Encourage students to analyze the cause of bullying, and let me come up with a solution to stop it. Empower students, and they shall deliver. Jose and Hector are best friends who fear another student named Rafael. There is not a day of the week that goes by that Rafael doesnt get into trouble. Rafael is the bully of the school and doesnt care what consequences he is given. A group of friends is tired of his bullying and wants to do something about it. They seek advice from one of their teachers, who gets them to thinking about Rafaels behavior. They find that there are underlying reasons why Rafael behaves the way he does. They make a plan to help him stop being a bully.

The Wound and the Stitch

A Genealogy of the Female Body from Medieval Iberia to SoCal Chicanx Art

By: Loretta Victoria Ramirez

The Wound and the Stitch traces a history of imagery and language centered on the concept of woundedness and the stitching together of fragmented selves. Focusing particularly on California and its historical violences against Chicanx bodies, Loretta Victoria Ramirez argues that woundedness has become a ubiquitous and significant form of Chicanx self-representation, especially in late twentieth-century print media and art. Ramirez maps a genealogy of the female body from late medieval Iberian devotional sculptures to contemporary strategies of self-representation. By doing so, she shows how wounds—metaphorical, physical, historical, and linguistic—are inherited and manifested as ongoing violations of the body and othered forms of identity. Beyond simply exposing these wounds, however, Ramirez also shows us how they can be healed—or rather stitched. Drawing on Mesoamerican concepts of securing stability during lived turmoil, or nepantla, Ramirez investigates how creators such as Cherríe Moraga, Renee Tajima-Peña, Guillermo Gómez-Peña, and Amalia Mesa-Bains repurpose the concept of woundedness to advocate for redress and offer delicate, ephemeral moments of healing. Positioning woundedness as a potent method to express Chicanx realities and transform the self from one that is wounded to one that is stitched, this book emphasizes the necessity of acknowledgment and ethical restitution for colonial legacies. It will be valued by scholars and students interested in the history of rhetorics, twentieth-century Chicanx art, and Latinx studies.

A visual guide to approximately 20 Florida art colonies and districts. The book will discusses in detail a variety of towns in Florida renowned as “Art Colonies,” together with several “Arts Districts” in both small towns and larger cities that have been designated by the local government and/or by developers as neighborhoods set aside to foster the arts.
