The reason to why we chose you is that we think you are the most fitting person for representing the Hispanic Heritage Foundation, we want the whole heritage to be more safefull and to gain them more knowledge: "What it is to be exposed for hate crime in the daily life".

    Under The Feet Of Jesus Viramontes Analysis

    Viramontes directly attacks the systemic and symbolic violence focused on hispanic immigrants. Her story draws deeply upon subtle imagery and hints at racist undertones in even the smallest things. While very little subjective violence actually occurs, the everyday encounters and daily life are imbued with the hate and violence Zizek warns of. Viramontes plays aptly upon the inherent violence imbued in the language system, showing the automatic stereotyping that takes place between speakers. She toys with systemic and symbolic violence and how they act together to inflame hatred and violence. In effect Viramontes study and draws out the undercurrents of violence rife in the United States by focusing on the lowest class of people. Drawing from personal experience she is able to recreate the awful experiences and exploitations common place in these communities. All in an attempt to broaden the definition and expression of these two forms of violence, the “violence that sustains our very efforts to fight violence”…

    Xenophobia In Latin America

    The illegality that is tied to this population is also related to the physical border that separated the United States and Mexico. It has become a symbol of a growing high risk. The presence of Latin American communities is now more then ever visible within the United States, especially in cities like Miami, Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York City. Some of the largest communities are those of Cubans, Dominicans, Puerto Ricans and Mexicans. Given this demographic phenomenon, conservative groups in the United States have expressed concern, saying that these new migrants who are subsequently combined into a category that encompasses legal and non-legal Latinos are occupying jobs, using public services without paying taxes and collaborating to the rising crime. The authors have all elaborated in their works that the American historical conception has created Mexicans and Latin American migration as one related to invasion and one of violation which has in turn helped in the creation of institutionalized laws and programs that prohibited this invasion. The rhetoric about Latino immigration took hold when President Ronald Reagan framed the immigration issue within the national security issue by stating that the US had lost control of the border. The terrorist attacks of September 11,2001 confirmed the alleged connection between migration, terrorism and national security. Thus the Mexican border has become the new battleground in the fight against terrorism. Leo R. Chavez put this all in perspective in Chapter Six of The Latino Threat as he analyzes the Minutemen and their agenda of protecting the US – Mexico border from foreign invasion.The Latino threat narrative in conjunction with the Mexican border has been regarded as a social arena where violence reigns,…

    Immigration

    Immigration is a topic that has been argued many times in the United States. Many people support it while others believe that immigrants are criminals who commit the crime of entering the U.S. illegally. Roberto Rodriguez and Star Parker both use different styles of writing in “Border on our Backs” and “Se Habla Entitlement” respectively. Although Roberto Rodriguez uses a personal approach to convey his message, Star Parker’s method of using real life facts and details to support her opinion really pulls through and is therefore more convincing.…
