About the Author :
Alvaro Huerta holds a joint faculty appointment in urban & region planning and ethnic & women’s studies at California State Polytechnic University, Pomona. He’s the author of the book Reframing the Latino Immigration Debate: Towards a Humanistic Paradigm.

Review :
A passionate and insightful account of that complex condition we refer to as immigration. Huerta brings to the fore the deeper meanings of us all, people on the move. Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free…," cries the Statue of Liberty with silent lips. Alvaro Huerta's compassionate essays complete her sentence. The message is loud and clear: "the wretched have a place in America, for it is they who make it worth. We want to know Huerta’s parents, don glasses that allow, as reading these editorials, essays, and thought pieces encourages, a relationship to real people and real issues. As Cesar Chavez would say or ask, to paraphrase, what could be more right than to honor the labor and contributions of those who bring food to the table so that we all might eat? Alvaro Huerta's book brings the immigration issue back to earth. Aside from being an excellent scholar, he is an activist who encapsulates the Left's voice in the immigration debate. This book synthesizes the more progressive currents of the debate and is a must-read for anyone seeking a just and lasting solution.
