Publisher Synopsis
"Rejecting the use of 'Mexican-American' as falsely connoting immigrant status, Mirande emphasizes that Chicanos are an indigenous people and that their significant indio/mestizo heritage has been neglected. Attaching the immigrant group model which concentrates on acculturation and assimilation, he discusses Chicano labor, criminality, education, the church, the family, and machismo ... an interesting and thought-provoking study." -Library Journal Read more...
