In 2001, Richard Delgado and Jean Stefancic published their definitive Critical Race Theory, a compact introduction to the field that explained, in straightforward language, the origins, principal themes, leading voices, and new directions of this important movement in legal thought. Since then, critical race theory has gone on to influence numerous other fields of scholarship, and the Delgado and Stefancic primer has remained an indispensible guide for students and teachers. Delgado and Stefancic have revised the book to include material on key issues such as colorblind jurisprudence, Latino-Critical scholarship, immigration, and the rollback of affirmative action. This second edition introduces readers to important new voices in fields outside of law, including education and psychology, and offers greatly expanded issues for discussion, updated reading lists, and an extensive glossary of terms.

This volume brings together established and new scholarly voices to explore how participatory and situated approaches to learning can contribute to educational innovation. The contributors' critical examinations of educational programming and engagements provide insights into how educators, youth, families, and community members understand and enact their commitments to diversity and equitable access. Collectively, these essays complicate notions of community, alerting readers to ways in which community can be constructed other than in geographical and ethnoracial terms--as alliances and collaborations of individuals joining together to accomplish or negotiate shared agendas. The focus on agency combined with social context, a dialectic to which all of the authors speak, enlarges and invigorates our sense of what is pedagogically possible in societies characterized by diversity and flux. *Part I, "Linking Pedagogy to Communities," focuses on dynamic initiatives where practitioners collaborate with community members and other professionals as they acknowledge and build on the cultural, linguistic, and intellectual resources of ethnic-minority students and their communities. *Part II, "Professional Learning for Diversity," centers on the authors' experiences in facilitating opportunities for working with prospective and practicing teachers to develop situated pedagogies, highlighting both the challenges that emerge and the transformations that occur. *Part III, "Learning in Community (and Community in Learning), illustrates how educational innovation can extend beyond the realm of schools and classrooms by elucidating ways in which individuals construct learning venues in out-of-school settings. Learning, Teaching, and Community: Contributions of Situated and Participatory Approaches to Educational Innovation is a compelling and timely text ideally suited for courses focused on teacher education and development, informal learning, equity and education, multilingual and multicultural education, language and culture, educational foundations, and school reform/educational restructuring, and will be equally of interest to faculty, researchers, and professionals in these areas.

Today's Inspired Latina is a book of inspiration and hope, a poignant collection of personal stories that will activate your passion. These are success stories that need to be told, to motivate our community and generations to come. By overcoming language barriers, self-doubts and other obstacles in their way, these strong Latinas are a great example of how inspiration and perseverance can lead you to happiness and success in business and life. It's a positive, empowering read for anyone sitting on a dream and thinking it can't come true. Today's Inspired Latina shows that it can! Introduction Sometimes in life you have an experience that is so amazing, you just have to share it! When I published my first book, my life changed. Six books later, not a day goes by that I don't receive a text or email from someone who tells me how my story has helped or inspired them. I am humbled by their accolades. I have also had the pleasure of meeting a number of young Latinas, once like me, setting forth in the world full of promise and dreams. Often times they don't have a role model or mentor to guide them in the right direction towards success; they experience financial difficulties or lack of support. It was witnessing these challenges that inspired me to start The Fig Factor Foundation to help them "unleash the amazing." In addition, through my company, JJR Marketing, I have met many strong, inspiring Latinas who came from a similar place, yet persevered through language barriers, cultural and educational obstacles as well as their own self-limiting beliefs to rise to positions of authority and success. One day I realized that theirs were the stories that needed to be told. Their stories will provide hope and inspiration to the next generation of Latinas that need to believe they could achieve their own success. I am proud to be a catalyst to capture the beauty and essence of these incredible Hispanic women while creating an emotional touchstone for their younger Hispanic sisters. For while I believe everyone has a story to tell, the reality is that becoming a book author can be an intimidating prospect. I completely understand that the expense, time commitment and process of authorship can be completely discouraging. That's why "Today's Inspired Latina" is such an important project. As contributors, these wonderful Latinas are able to impart their story, grow their dreams and activate the next generation and every individual reader. These authors have crossed more than borders to create a place of contentment in the world. I'm confident everyone can learn from their experiences, whether or not you are Latina. Jacqueline Camacho

Advance praise for YO SOY LATINA! "Genius. YO SOY LATINA! is a work of art and a pioneering journey to voice the different Latino races and cultures."-Raul Gonzales, Mas Ruido "YO SOY LATINA! indeed. Nieves-Powell skillfully and honestly renders the varying experiences faced by all women of color."-Jimmie Briggs, The New York Amsterdam News In this critically acclaimed play by author Linda Nieves-Powell, six women from varying Latino sub-cultures arrive at a "What is a Latina?" seminar in hopes of understanding their culture's impact on their lives. It doesn't take long for each woman to offer her unique perspective on men, jobs, family, and Latino society. Their dialogue offers an honest view of the challenges and struggles that Latino women face. As they seek a solution to the question, "What is a Latina?" they discover the answer must come from within. This soul-searching provides the strength they need to express themselves-and their culture-in a positive light. Also included is a narrative version of YO SOY LATINA! In this version, Nieves-Powell reveals candid thoughts on her motivation in writing the play and delves deeply into the world of Latino women.
