Cuban Angel - Courage Without Limits
Maria Fernandez was born in Cuba the year Fidel Castro and his revolution took over the country. Her fascinating story explains what Cuba was really like in those early days. Maria and her beloved mother managed to escape Cuba on the Freedom Flights. Her story takes us to California, where she grows up and finishes her education to become a medical professional. We learn about what the separation from country and family meant for Maria and her mother. Maria tells us about losing her mother and her loneliness in not finding the right life partner for herself. She bravely exposes herself and her attempts to leave this world before it was time. Maria discovered a new love of life and a new mission for herself. She shares her thoughts on the recent opening up of Cuba and what it could mean for the Cuban people. Maria's story about Cuba, her life and finding her life's purpose is a wonderful story of hope, faith and most importantly, love.
Storms
Although the news bulletin confirmed her decision to evacuate, Elise didn't want to hear another minute of forecasts, preparations, and predictions. Brad searched until he found a nice easy listening channel, and drove through the rain on surprisingly deserted roads. Apparently, the rest of the city heeded the warnings long before the Steiners. As the car ventured through the quiet stillness of the calm before the storm, the children slept, while their parents and grandparents sat in silence, looking out at the Louisiana wetlands bordering the interstate highway. At one point, in their lonely journey, a caravan of paramedic units and ambulances passed them up, in the left lane Elise felt her...

For We are Sold, I and My People
On the basis of systematic research and personal experience, For We Are Sold, I and My People uncovers some of the social costs of modern production. Maria Patricia Fernandez-Kelly peels off the labels--"Made in Taiwan," "Assembled in Mexico"--and the trade names--RCA, Sony, General Motors, United Technologies, General Electric, Mattel, Chrysler, American Hospital Supply--to reveal the hidden human dimensions of present-day multinational manufacturing procedures. Focusing on Cuidad Juarez, located at the United States-Mexican border, Fernandez-Kelly examines the reality of maquiladoras, the hundreds of assembly plants that since the 1960s have been used by the Mexican government as part of its development strategy. Most maquiladoras function as subsidiaries of large U.S.-based corporations and a majority of the employees are women. Drawing from current knowledge in political economy and anthropology, this study focuses on one common denominator of the international division of labor--a growing proletariat of Third World women exploited by what some experts are calling "the global assembly line."
