About this title

Synopsis

This new and very important collection of essays reinterprets and updates the histo-ry of New York's Puerto Rican community and its leaders from

the beginnings of the great migration in the 1940s to the present time. The collection also honors the mem-ory of the late Dr. Antonia Pantoja, who was perhaps the community's most impor-tant and influential activist and institution builder during this period.

The book is organized in chronological order and includes chapters by noted his-torians, sociologists, and political scientists, such as Virginia S�nchez Korrol, Ana Celia Zentella, Jos� Cruz, Francisco Rivera Batiz, and Gabriel Haslip-Viera. These chapters focus on issues of culture, demography, language, economic status, politics, and community organization. The volume ends with essays by Angelo Falc�n and Clara E. Rodr�guez that assess the legacy, current status, and future prospects of the Puerto Rican community in New York.

About the Author
