Because immigration is such a recurring-and divisive-topic in the United States, it is easy to assume that we understand what it means for an immigrant to live under the specter of surveillance and punishment. It is easy to assume, as many scholars and journalists do, that undocumented immigrants live on the run from the authorities, constantly fleeing to the margins of daily life, staying in the shadows beneath the eyes of the law. And yet, while it is certainly true that immigrants are constantly faced with mechanisms of surveillance that function as tools of societal exclusion, this only tells part of the story.  In Engage and Evade: How Latino Immigrant Families Manage Surveillance in Everyday Life (Princeton UP, 2023), Asad L. Asad show, many people with a sanctionable status cannot-and, in some cases, do not want to-evade surveilling institutions or the formal records they generate: evading the institutions that keep formal records is a luxury that most immigrants (especially those with children) cannot afford. In Engage and Evade, Asad uses a wealth of interviews and ethnographic observations collected in Dallas County, Texas, bolstered and contextualized by original analyses of national survey data, to explore whether, how, and why immigrants engage with surveilling institutions. Presenting the stories of immigrants living in mixed-status families in which at least two members of the household have different legal statuses, and focusing especially on the experiences of immigrant parents, Asad argues that engagement with such institutions stems as much from hope for societal inclusion as it does from fear of exclusion. By paying attention to the ways in which immigrants make sense of, pursue, and use the records that result from these engagements, Asad reveals a variety of ways these individuals reinforce or resist their sanctionable status through the state's own surveillance. Kendall Dinniene is a PhD candidate in English at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas. Their dissertation will examine how American fiction variously affirms, complicates, and resists dominant notions of fatness, and reveals how these notions are intertwined with and produce ideas about race, gender, sexuality, health, (dis)ability, criminality, and national identity. Their work relies upon queer theory, crip theory, Black feminism, and fat studies scholarship alongside literary criticism to argue that how we understand fatness is crucial to the way we understand (and make) our world.

Distance learning is hard enough. And once you get past acquiring the technology needed to make it happen, there’s an additional step for many immigrant families and Indigenous-language speakers: figuring out how to log on and communicate with your teachers.

It is just right over the bridge from the city of Boston, but it (sadly) might as well be invisible in the eyes of many Bostonians and Massachusetts residents. It is the city of Chelsea, and according to several reports (https://www.bostonglobe.com/2020/04/07/opinion/chelsea-city-working-latino-immigrant-emerges-covid-19-hotspot/) , it is has become the state's COVID-19 epicenter. A city this is close to 70% Latino, Chelsea is home to a significant Latin American immigrant population. The crisis has hit the city hard, with rates of positive coronavirus cases per 10,000 people similar to those of New York City. For this special episode of Latino Rebels Radio, host Julio Ricardo Varela talks to Chelsea City Councilor Judith Garcia about what is happening in Chelsea and why.

Today’s Library Tidbit is an interview with Holocaust survivor Marie Silverman. You can find more information about the Holocaust by visiting The Florida Holocaust Museum. You can find more of Marie Silverman's testimony here. And now it's time for Book Traveler, with Victor: Intro: Welcome to a new episode of Book Traveler. My name is Victor and I am a librarian at the Largo Public Library. Today I am going to talk about a nonfiction book that we have in the Spanish collection entitled Stranger: The Challenge of a Latino Immigrant in the Trump Era by Jorge Ramos. Synopsis: Jorge Ramos, an Emmy award-winning journalist, Univision’s longtime anchorman and widely considered the “voice of the voiceless” within the Latino community, was forcefully removed from an Iowa press conference in 2015 by then-candidate Donald Trump after trying to ask about his plans on immigration. In this personal manifesto, Ramos sets out to examine what it means to be a Latino immigrant, or just an immigrant, in present-day America. Using current research and statistics, with a journalist’s nose for a story, and interweaving his own personal experience, Ramos shows us the changing face of America while also trying to find an explanation for why he, and millions of others, still feel like strangers in this country. Opinion: If you are not a Univision viewer, you may not be familiar with Jorge Ramos. He is a news anchor and reporter. Ramos became famous in the Anglo-Saxon public for having been expelled from an important press conference during the Iowa Caucus season for asking candidate Donald J. Trump too many specific questions about the central element of his campaign: the wall. Ramos was born and raised in Mexico City, but moved to the United States to receive additional journalistic training and looking for the opportunity to be freer in his journalistic practice. He was lucky in television journalism, but he has succeeded and has done quite well. He has also become a US citizen. In the book, Ramos addresses the story of the press conference immediately. It is not as dramatic as it looked on television, because the future president allowed him to return to the press conference and made a private interview with Ramos later. This moment set a couple of precedents, however. Trump and the press have had a difficult relationship, to put it mildly. Another precedent was also established. As Ramos cooled his heels outside the press conference, a Trump supporter, wearing a red "Make America Great Again" hat, told Ramos: "Get out of my country!" Ramos informed him that he was a US citizen, just to be told: "Whatever!" For the first time in years, Ramos felt that he was really a stranger in his adopted country, hence the title of the book. Ramos builds on this latest incident for a while, discussing how the President's behavior and comments have encouraged many to act, feeling a change in the political climate. He also talks about civil rights inequalities for Hispanics, his own mostly positive experiences and how the current political climate is disorienting for a man who has lived more than half of his life in ...

Time magazine put him on one of the covers for its “100 most influential people in the world” (2015 issue) and on the list of “the 25 most influential Hispanics in the United States”. “Ramos carries near biblical authority, at least in the eyes of his nearly 2 million nightly viewers”, Forbes magazine reported. He is the author of thirteen books and bestsellers: “Stranger: The Challenge of a Latino Immigrant in the Trump Era”, “Take a Stand; Lessons from Rebels”, “Behind the Mask”, “What I Saw”, “The Other Face of America”, “Hunting the Lion”, his autobiography “No Borders: a Journalist’s Search for Home”, “The Latino Wave”, “Dying to Cross”, “The Gift of Time; Letters from a Father”, “A Country for All; An Immigrant Manifesto”, “Los Presidenciables” (only in Spanish) and the children’s book “I’m Just Like My Dad/I’m Just Like My Mom”.
