A Puerto Rican in New York makes invaluable reading for anyone who would gain a closer understanding of labor and immigrant history, ethnic and racial relations, and the centrality of Caribbean-U.S. affairs in the present-day workings of world imperialism. Jesus Colon throws open a window through which all can hear an intelligible and sympathetic Puerto Rican voice.
レビュー
-
A real life story
Really great Puerto Rican by a Young Lord. Really describes the “mean streets” and how he was able to build community and move beyond the chaos of gangs and slums
-
A timeless reflection of what it’s like to be Latina/o/x in the United States.
This book was an amazing read and despite being published in 1982, still holds true today. I recommend this book to anyone interested into gaining insight into what its like to be an immigrant in the United States
