By presenting thirteen riveting oral histories of young, first-generation college students, professor of Chicano studies and history at the University of California, Santa Barbara, Mario T. Garc?a counters those long-held stereotypes and expands our understanding of what he terms ?the Latino Generation.? By allowing these young people to share their stories and struggles, Garc?a reveals that these students and children of immigrants will be critical players in the next chapter of our nation?s history.
Collected over several years, the testimonios follow the history of the speakers in thought-provoking ways, reminding us that members of the Latino Generation are not merely a demographic group but rather real individuals, as American in their aspirations and loyalty as the members of any other ethnic group in the country.
