Because I'm Human I received an invitation to this adventure where I traveled and lived between Chile and the USA for six years. Because I'm Human I lived the facts I share in this book. Because I'm Human talks not only of the experiences that took me to understand what it means to find my identity in the Kingdom of God, but how valuable mankind is to God; because He so loved the world that sent His only son Jesus. Through Jesus I have been able to live this adventure of knowing God and loving Him. Also to experience the power and authority Jesus gives his followers to through faith move mountains.
DREAMers and the Choreography of Protest tells the story of how a network of undocumented youth radicalized the immigrant rights movement in the United States. Based on interviews with lead activists, extensive archival research, and years of ethnographic study, Michael P. Young traces the key events shaping DREAMer activism from 2006 to 2014. Chronicling a sequence of escalating protests--from sit-ins to detention center infiltrations and border crossing actions--Young argues that this audacious choreography of protest inspired and shaped a social movement of and for undocumented immigrants.
This book contains the papers presented at the XXX International Congress INGEGRAF, “Digital Engineering, its application in Research, Development and Innovation”, held on 24–25 June 2021 in Valencia, Spain. The book reports on cutting-edge topics in product design and manufacturing, such as industrial methods for integrated product and process design; innovative design; and computer-aided design. Further topics covered include virtual simulation and reverse engineering; additive manufacturing; product manufacturing; engineering methods in medicine and education; representation techniques; and nautical, engineering and construction, aeronautics and aerospace design and modeling. The book has six sections, reflecting the focus and primary themes of the conference. The contributions presented here will not only provide researchers, engineers, and experts in a range of industrial engineering subfields with extensive information to support their daily work; but also they are intended to stimulate new research directions, advanced applications of the methods discussed, and future interdisciplinary collaborations.
Illegalized: Undocumented Youth Movements in the United States takes readers on a journey through the history of the rise of undocumented youth social movements in the United States in the twenty-first century. The book follows the documentation trail of undocumented youth activists spanning over two decades of organizing. Each chapter carefully analyzes key organizing strategies used by undocumented youth to produce direct forms of activism that expose and critique repressive forms of state control and violence. This inquiry is particularly generative in relation to how immigrant bodies are erased, contained, and imagined as “aliens” or “illegal.” Rafael A. Martínez, an undocu-scho...

Immigration detention is an important global phenomenon increasingly practiced by states across the world in which human rights violations are commonplace. Challenging Immigration Detention introduces readers to various disciplines that have addressed immigration detention in recent years and how these experts have sought to challenge underlying causes and justifications for detention regimes. Contributors provide an overview of the key issues addressed in their disciplines, discuss key points of contention, and seek out linkages and interactions with experts from other fields.
The United States is rapidly transforming into one of the most racially and ethnically diverse nations in the world. Groups commonly referred to as minorities-including Asian Americans, Pacific Islanders, African Americans, Hispanics, American Indians, and Alaska Natives-are the fastest growing segments of the population and emerging as the nation's majority. Despite the rapid growth of racial and ethnic minority groups, their representation among the nation's health professionals has grown only modestly in the past 25 years. This alarming disparity has prompted the recent creation of initiatives to increase diversity in health professions. In the Nation's Compelling Interest considers the benefits of greater racial and ethnic diversity, and identifies institutional and policy-level mechanisms to garner broad support among health professions leaders, community members, and other key stakeholders to implement these strategies. Assessing the potential benefits of greater racial and ethnic diversity among health professionals will improve the access to and quality of healthcare for all Americans.
