WHAT IS HOLDING YOU BACK? OR BETTER YET, WHO IS HOLDING YOU BACK? You've read the Purpose Driven Life, prayed the Prayer of Jabez, taken the steps to living Your Best Life Now, but you continue getting knocked down, stomped on, and kicked to the curb. As a believer you've given your life to Christ, things should be better, right? Yet things are beginning to look like "All hell has broken loose." To make matters worse you know people who have nothing to do with the church or the Lord and their lives appear to be a whole lot better than yours and a lot more fun! WHAT IS UP WITH ALL THAT? We have overlooked what any good military strategist knows: HIS ENEMIES COME AND JOURNEY with our heroine T...
The Making of Chicana/o Studies
The Making of Chicana/o Studies traces the philosophy and historical development of the field of Chicana/o studies from precursor movements to the Civil Rights era to today, focusing its lens on the political machinations in higher education that sought to destroy the discipline. As a renowned leader, activist, scholar, and founding member of the movement to establish this curriculum in the California State University system, which serves as a model for the rest of the country, Rodolfo F.

Teaching Literacy in First Grade
First grade is a year of important new experiences for students and teachers alike. Some students will arrive knowing how to read, others will know a few letters of the alphabet, and most will be somewhere in between. Including dozens of reproducibles, this book guides first-grade teachers in the many decisions they face about how to orchestrate effective, appropriate, and engaging instruction. A special strength of the book is the authors' deep understanding of the oral language base of literacy learning - both reading and writing - and their expertise in differentiating instruction for English language learners.
Mambo Kingdon: Latin Music in New York
Shortly after Puerto Ricans were granted U.S. citizenship in 1917, they began moving into an uptown Manhattan neighborhood that would become known as "Spanish Harlem." By 1930, Afro-Cuban music had gained a firm foothold in the city, setting the stage for the mambo, boogaloo, salsa and Latin-jazz scenes that followed. In this collection of profiles and essays, Max Salazar, perhaps the most eminent Latin-music historian in the United States, tells the story of the music and the musicians who made it happen, including Tito Puente, Machito, Tito Rodriguez, Charlie and Eddie Palmieri, Hector Lavoe and many others.
