Book Description
This bilingual collection of immigrant stories is timely considering our current political climate. Demagogues are taking to the press and airwaves bemoaning the existence of immigrants in our communities, complaining about how they are taking away jobs from "Americans." The Latino immigrant experience is linked with the experience of other peoples who in previous times had came to the United States from other countries. The experiences of Latinos is not that different from other immigrants, and their narrative are part of the story of what it is to be American, because this country was established and built by immigrants. Immigrants are being demonized unfairly, and we need to tell their stories so that we can all have a better understanding of the immigrant plight. It is with that purpose that this bilingual collection of personal immigrant experiences is presented.

Book Description
Border of Lights, a volunteer collective, returns each October to Dominican-Haitian border towns to bear witness to the 1937 Haitian Massacre ordered by Dominican dictator Rafael Leónidas Trujillo. This crime against humanity has never been acknowledged by the Dominican government and no memorial exists for its victims. A multimodal, multi-vocal space for activists, artists, scholars, and others connected to the BOL movement, The Border of Lights Reader provides an alternative to the dominant narrative that positions Dominicans and Haitians as eternal adversaries and ignores cross-border and collaborative histories. This innovative anthology asks large-scale, universal questions regarding historical memory and revisionism that countries around the world grapple with today. "By bringing together in one volume poetry, visual arts, literary analysis, in-depth interviews and historical analysis this volume will provide its readers with a comprehensive view of the causes and the aftermath of the massacre." --Ramón Antonio Victoriano-Martínez, University of British Columbia Contributions by Julia Alvarez, Amanda Alcántara, DeAndra Beard, Nancy Betances, Jésula Blanc, Matías Bosch Carcuro, Cynthia Carrión, Raj Chetty, Catherine DeLaura, Magaly Colimon, Juan Colón, Robin Maria DeLugan, Lauren Derby, Rosa Iris Diendomi Álvarez, Polibio Díaz, Rana Dotson, Rita Dove, Rhina P.
