Book Description
Read the media coverage of the increasingly heated debate around immigration reform in the United States: two dominant narratives emerge. From Lou Dobbs to Sean Hannity, commentators on the right have crafted an image rooted in fear, demonizing undocumented immigrants as a threat to national security and raising the specter of a deliberate "browning of America." Left-leaning journalists, on the other hand, foreground victimization, emphasizing the plight of immigrants, stripping them of their agency. Neither captures the range of experiences within undocumented immigrant communities, and both fail to see immigrants as active participants in their own struggle for racial and economic justice. Presente! offers a rare perspective on the immigrant-rights movement, written by immigrant workers themselves. Including a range of essays exploring the intersection of race, class, and immigration in the United States, this anthology challenges its readers to move beyond a "legalization-only" framework and embrace a broader vision for social justice organizing embodied in the work of grassroots organizations across the country resisting state repression, cultivating solidarity, and building alternative models for progressive social change. Offered in a dual-language edition, with a foreword by Democracy Now! co-host Juan Gonzáles. Cristina Tzintzún is the executive director of Workers Defense Project, a Texas based workers' rights organization. Carlos Pérez de Alejo is the executive director of Cooperation Texas, an organization dedicated to the creation of sustainable jobs through the development, support, and promotion of worker-owned cooperatives. Arnulfo Manríquez is an organizer at Workers Defense Project, where he organizes immigrant construction workers to defend their labor and human rights.

Book Description
Cuando la tranquilidad se torna dominante y mi entorno fecundo, estalla con voz armoniosa y envolvente la nostalgia. Entonces llega la musa como sol naciente. Y de mi pluma brotan versos que hacen del papel un gorrión que hará de su canto mi poesía. Pasa un día y otro día. Vuelvo a escuchar la triste voz que me pone en manos de la tristeza. Planto otros versos que se vuelven poesía. Así pasan los días. Así nacen las musas. Esta obra es la esencia nostálgica que brota del rincón de mi existencia, las que presento en versos los que quizás muchos ojos leerán y al hacerlo no verán, mas mi voz gritara aunque quizás no se oiga, tal vez porque soy la simple lagrima que comienza a recorrer a ciegas y en la oscuridad los senderos de una faz desconocida. En cada uno de estos poemas me encuentro, porque cada uno formo parte de mi ser en algún momento de mi vida y en algún instante de mi vida fueron mi vida en ese instante. Quiero con esta obra remover los sentimientos más ocultos y darles vida, haciendo sentir en ellos la eternidad del instante, dejando sentir vibrante las luces de cada verso, casi cegante, expuestos sobre papel, tal vez tímidos y temerosos de que los ojos no los miren y las almas no los sientan. Voz de la nostalgia, tal vez no sea más que la migración de mi vida a la muerte, hacia tristes pasiones posiblemente absurdas, ya que evaden las finalidades de los hombres; mi meta no es negar la felicidad ni omitirla, sino simplemente despertar esa sensibilidad que yace bajo la corteza ruda de los mas apesadumbrados seres, presentándoles aquella soledad que se ahoga en el silencio y nos hace sus víctimas, aquellos sentimientos que queman el alma y que han quemado el corazón de muchos hombres. Este sin número de voces son ecos del alma con los que comparto sentimientos ajenos y propios que deseo hacer latir en otros corazones.
