Through storytelling, these writers create community and a sense of peoplehood that includes non-citizen Latino\/as. This volume also foregrounds the narratives of unauthorized migrants themselves, showing how their stories are emerging into the public sphere.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eImmigration and citizenship are multifaceted issues, and the voices are myriad. They challenge common interpretations of \"illegal\" immigration, explore inevitable traumas and ethical dilemmas, protest their own silencing in immigration debates, and even capitalize on the topic for the commercial market. Yet these texts all seek to affect political discourse by advancing the possibility of empathy across lines of ethnicity and citizenship status.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAs border enforcement strategies escalate along with political rhetoric, detentions, and deaths, these counternarratives are more significant than ever before, and their perspectives cannot be ignored. What we are witnessing, argues Caminero-Santangelo, is a mass mobilization of stories. This growing body of literature is critical to understanding not only the Latino\/a immigrant experience but also alternative visions of nation and belonging.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-11100903\"\u003eMarta Caminero-Santangelo\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University Press of Florida\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/10\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.69d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780813064567\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0813064562\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-LIT\"\u003eLiterary Criticism\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-LIT004100\"\u003eCaribbean \u0026amp; Latin American\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-SOC\"\u003eSocial Science\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-SOC007000\"\u003eEmigration \u0026amp; Immigration\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-HIS\"\u003eHistory\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-HIS036000\"\u003eUnited States | General\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eMarta Caminero-Santangelo\u003c\/b\u003e, professor of English at the University of Kansas, is the author of \u003ci\u003eOn Latinidad: U.S. Latino Literature and the Construction of Ethnicity\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Madwoman Can't Speak: Or Why Insanity Is Not Subversive\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University Press of Florida","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44687199273197,"sku":"9780813064567","price":37.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_3789e0b9-85e4-465c-a0fb-c4f32e198e7b.jpg?v=1703657402","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/es\/products\/documenting-the-undocumented-latinoa-narratives-and-social-justice-in-the-era-of-operation-gatekeeper-9780813064567","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
