“This is an intellectually and emotionally

generous book that will provide inspiration and

intellectual leadership for generations of feminist

students of color to come. . . . May this work

be remembered for its ethical rebellion, may this rebellion become the basis

for constructing new modes of consciousness in the

Americas.”

GENDER AND SEXUALITY

“Mata’s readings of im-migration and migrant

subjectivities contribute to expanding the knowledge production of the genre.”

—AL I C I A ARR I ZÓN ,

author of Latina Performance and Queering Mestizaje: Transculturation

and Performance

“An excellent resource for graduate classes in

women’s studies, literature, American studies, and

ethnic studies.”

—CATR I ONA RUEDA ESQU I BE L ,

Associate Professor of Ethnic Studies, San Francisco State University

With the full performance script and a wealth of

materials for producing, teaching, and using the

play to build community, The Panza Monologues

reveals important truths about women and body

image, as well as Chicana cultural production.

“This is the most original and historically document-ed theatre project to date in

Latina/o theatre. . . . It is a lesson in making theatre

matter, and it spotlights how theatre is informed by lived experiences and historical processes. . . . Cultural workers, stu-

dents, and scholars will enjoy and benefit from this important study. As far as I know, there are no other

books like this one.”

“A potent cri de coeur for a more compassionate,

sane and humane border policy.”

—K IRKUS

Two strawberry harvesters, Efrain and Lorenzo, wait in Altar, Sonora, before crossing the desert on their way to the California fields.

U N I V E R S I T Y O F T E X A S P R E S S | L A T I N A / O S T U D I E S 13

Using oral histories and local archives, this historical ethnography analyzes how and why

Mexican American individuals unevenly

experienced racial dominance and segregation

in South Texas.

“The Borderlands of Race will be a valuable

addition to the literature on Texas, the U.S.-

Mexico borderlands, and Chicano/a studies. . . .

The author offers a new means for understanding

the uncertain and inconsistent policies of

segregation through what she calls ‘accommodated

segregation.”

—ANTHON Y P. MORA, Author

of Border Dilemmas: Racial and

National Uncertainties in New Mexico,

1848–1912

“A must read for scholars and students interested in the study of race, nation, borders, and citizenship.”

Border ContrabandA History of Smuggling across the

In this first history of smuggling along the U.S.-Mexico border, Díaz shows how illicit trade

evolved from a common practice of ordinary people into a professional, often violent, criminal

activity.

“Here’s the book I’ve been waiting for: a well-researched history of the clandestine side of U.S.-Mexico trade relations. Today’s heated debates about an out-of-control border too often suffer

from historical amnesia. Díaz has given us a much-needed historical corrective

and reality check, reminding us that the

border has never actually been under control.”

—AMER I CAN S T UD I ES

“Without sounding too effusive, this book is some-

thing of a ‘tour de force.’While there are books and other studies about Guate-

malan immigrantcommunities, this book is a nice combination of theory,

case study, andhistory. I know of no other

book on Guatemala or indeed about other

countries that accom-plishes this. The writing is

superb; the book is veryreadable.”

“Rodriguez gained cin-ematic notoriety with the

image of a guitar case that concealed not a musical in-strument but a weapon. In similar fashion, Aldama’s

book contains many surprises and sharp-edged tools for thinking about the crossroads of film, politics, and identity. . . . An explo-

sive text.”

—ALEX R I V ERA, director of

Sleep Dealer

Robert Rodriguez’s DIY Mariachi Aesthetic in the making of El Mariachi (1992).
