Latinos in the United States: What Everyone Needs to Know by Ilan Stavans
English | January 2, 2018 | ISBN: 0190670185 | 224 pages | EPUB | 1.30 Mb
As the largest and youngest minority group in the United States, the 60 million Latinos living in the U.S. represent the second-largest concentration of Hispanic people in the entire world, after Mexico. Needless to say, the population of Latinos in the U.S. is causing a shift, not only changing the demographic landscape of the country, but also impacting national culture, politics, and spoken language. While Latinos comprise a diverse minority group - with various religious beliefs, political ideologies, and social values-commentators on both sides of the political divide have lumped Latino Americans into a homogenous group that is often misunderstood.

Khabaar An Immigrant Journey of Food, Memory, and Family

Khabaar An Immigrant Journey of Food, Memory, and Family
Madhushree Ghosh, "Khabaar: An Immigrant Journey of Food, Memory, and Family "
English | ISBN: 1609388232 | 2022 | 212 pages | EPUB | 14 MB
Khabaar is a food memoir and personal narrative that braids the global journeys of South Asian food through immigration, migration, and indenture. Focusing on chefs, home cooks, and food stall owners, the book questions what it means to belong and what does belonging in a new place look like in the foods carried over from the old country? These questions are integral to the author's own immigrant journey to America as a daughter of Indian refugees (from what's now Bangladesh to India during the 1947 Partition of India); as a woman of color in science; as a woman who left an abusive marriage; and as a woman who keeps her parents' memory alive through her Bengali food.

Journalist Safety and Self-Censorship

Journalist Safety and Self-Censorship
Journalist Safety and Self-Censorship By Anna Grøndahl Larsen (editor), Ingrid Fadnes (editor), Roy Krøvel (editor)
2020 | 220 Pages | ISBN: 036740964X | PDF | 17 MB
This book explores the relationship between the safety of journalists and self-censorship practices around the world, including local case studies and regional and international perspectives. Bringing together scholars and practitioners from around the globe, Journalist Safety and Self-Censorship provides new and updated insights into patterns of self-censorship and free speech, focusing on a variety of factors that affect these issues, including surveillance, legislation, threats, violent conflict, gender-related stereotypes, digitisation and social media. The contributions examine topics such as trauma, risk and self-censorship among journalists in different regions of the world, including Central America, Estonia, Turkey, Uganda and Pakistan. The book also provides conceptual clarity to the notion of journalist self-censorship, and explores the question of how self-censorship may be studied empirically. Combining both theoretical and practical knowledge, this collection serves as a much-needed resource for any academic, student of journalism, practicing journalist, or NGO working on issues of journalism, safety, free speech and censorship.
