Border Angels

Enrique Morones

Looking for a work at the crossroads of border studies, history, memoir, political science, social justice, activism, chicana/o studies, and immigrant rights, then Enrique Morones BORDER ANGELS: THE POWER OF ONE is the book for you. In the American Southwest, no other social justice advocate has made a greater impact on the lives of undocumented workers than Enrique Morones. In BORDER ANGELS: THE POWER OF ONE, Morones tells his own story (with noted Chicano historian Richard Griswold del Castillo), and the result is a singular memoir of someone who takes the chance to make a difference-a brave activist who, with his organization, the Border Angels, saves the lives of legions who attempt to cross the hot, beautiful, and dangerous deserts that fuse the United States and Mexico. Advanced word: "Enrique Morones' story is remarkable and needs to be told. He is a man of conscience who stands up to injustice by simply being on the side of love and human dignity.Let us all rejoice that an angel walks among us in this fight for truth, immigration reform, and justice for all." Josefina Lopez, playwright and activist "Enrique Morones is the finest example of the Si Se Puede attitude in service to those who risk their lives in search of a better life." Arturo Rodriguez, President, UFW "My father, Cesar Chavez, led heroic grape workers around Delano, California, in the longest continuing farmworker strike in U.S. history in a profound statement of non-cooperation with a farm labor system that exploits and impoverishes mostly immigrant farm workers. Today, courageous members of the Border Angels are honoring the legacy of my father by making a powerful statement against inhumanity and oppression endured on our border by innocent immigrants." Paul F. Chavez, President Cesar Chavez Foundation ￼REVISED SECOND EDITION ISBN-13: 978-1-9385
