Book excerpt: Nací en Manicaragua, las Villas, descendiente de una familia humilde. Creo que mi vida comenzó cuando a los siete u ocho años me separaron de mi madre y me llevaron para La Habana, capital de Cuba. Allí mis hermanas mayores residían y empecé a estudiar los grados primarios. Ya cursando grados primarios, a los diez años empecé a escribir mis primeras composiciones e historias así como un diario que siempre cargaba con él para todos lados. Tuve mi primer maestro Juan Marquetti Lastra (de los famosos hermanos Marquetti de Alquízar-Habana, todos negros y profesionales) que marcó pautas excelentes en la que aprendí de él buenas lecciones de moral y cívica. Siempre me llevaba el consejo certero de que "no dejara de escribir...que ya se podía creer todo lo que dijera". A los pocos años me vi en los cementerios donde sentía que allí se enriquecía mis deseos de escribir, en el póstumo silencio que ofrecen los muertos, porque los vivos no dejan concentrar mucho a uno. Estudié en el tecnológico Osvaldo Herrera en Rancho Boyeros y Lombillo Ciudad Habana, estudié telegrafía y operación de larga distancia, teniendo allí el cargo de Resp. de cultura a nivel del plantel. Participé en varios talleres literarios, así como en el Concurso Nacional a la Mujer Trabajadora, auspiciado por la CTC de trabajadores de Cuba donde obtuve el segundo lugar. Participé en encuentros de cultura con poemas míos que fueron mencionados. La Federación Nacional de Mujeres Cubanas auspició un concurso "Te ofrezco mis manos" obteniendo mención. Participé en el concurso "Mario Muñoz Monroy" del ministerio de Comunicaciones en Cuba obteniendo premios y reconocimientos. Siempre seguí escribiendo ya que mi trabajo proporcionaba la posibilidad de seguir incursionando en este ámbito. Fui supervisora de Radio y Tv en Comunicaciones en Cuba hasta que emigré a los Estados Unidos en el año l994 trabajando en varias actividades, hasta el 2008 en que decido ponerme a escribir con más ahinco y desde ahí he continuado hasta el momento en que he recopilado cerca de 5,000 poemas. Publiqué en el año 2011. "Donde nace el Poema" y "Manifiesto de Pasión" en el mismo año. Próximamente saldrá un poemario de sonetos y haikus. Participo activamente en el espacio Poemas del Alma desde el 2009, donde feliz comparto mi actividad como escritora.

Download or read book East of East written by Romeo Guzmán and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2020-02-14 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: East of East: The Making of Greater El Monte, is an edited collection of thirty-one essays that trace the experience of a California community over three centuries, from eighteenth-century Spanish colonization to twenty-first century globalization. Employing traditional historical scholarship, oral history, creative nonfiction and original art, the book provides a radical new history of El Monte and South El Monte, showing how interdisciplinary and community-engaged scholarship can break new ground in public history. East of East tells stories that have been excluded from dominant historical narratives—stories that long survived only in the popular memory of residents, as well as narratives that have been almost completely buried and all but forgotten. Its cast of characters includes white vigilantes, Mexican anarchists, Japanese farmers, labor organizers, civil rights pioneers, and punk rockers, as well as the ordinary and unnamed youth who generated a vibrant local culture at dances and dive bars.

Download or read book Postnational Musical Identities written by Ignacio Corona and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2008 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Postnational Musical Identities gathers interdisciplinary essays that explore how music audiences and markets are imagined in a globalized scenario, how music reflects and reflects upon new understandings of citizenship beyond the nation-state, and how music works as a site of resistance against globalization. "Hybridity," "postnationalism," "transnationalism," "globalization," "diaspora," and similar buzzwords have not only informed scholarly discourse and analysis of music but also shaped the way musical productions have been marketed worldwide in recent times. While the construction of identities occupies a central position in this context, there are discrepancies between the conceptualization of music as an extremely fluid phenomenon and the traditionally monovalent notion of identity to which it has historically been incorporated. As such, music has always been linked to the construction of regional and national identities. The essays in this collection seek to explore the role of music, networks of music distribution, music markets, music consumption, music production, and music scholarship in the articulation of postnational sites of identification.

Download or read book Bachata and Dominican Identity La bachata y la identidad dominicana written by Julie A. Sellers and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-09-24 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachata--a guitar-based romantic music that debuted in Santo Domingo's urban shantytowns in the 1960s--is today one of the hottest Latin genres. Still, fans and musicians have not forgotten the social stigma the genre carried for decades. This book interweaves bachata's history and development with the socio-political context of Dominican identity. The author argues that its early disfavor resulted from the political climate of its origins and ties between class and race, and proposes that its ultimate acceptance as a symbol of Dominican identity arose from its innovations, the growth of the lower class, and a devoted following among Dominican migrants. La bachata--una musica de guitarra que se estreno en los barrios populares de Santo Domingo en los anos 60--hoy, es uno de los generos latinos mas populares. No obstante, sus aficionados y sus exponentes recuerdan el estigma social asociado que conllevo por decadas. Este libro entreteje la historia y el desarrollo de la bachata con el contexto socio-politico de la identidad dominicana. La autora plantea que su desaprobacion temprana resulto del clima politico en que nacio y los vinculos entre raza y clase social. Propone que su aceptacion final como simbolo de identidad dominicana surge de sus innovaciones, el crecimiento de la clase baja y sus seguidores leales entre los migrantes dominicanos.
