Description
Softcover book in English that chronicles the work of Katherine Borland, as part of the Delaware Folklife Project. The result of about 50 interviews are contained in the book, providing a window into the largest and newest group of immigrants to the United States. The Hispanic community's growth in Delaware has been extensive and rapid. Like the waves of other immigrants before them, they have worked to find their way in a strange new environment. They have created a valuable addition to the labor force but have struggled against the challenges of housing, language, poverty and crime. Here are interviews from 1999-2000 with community organizers, workers, entrepreneurs, community workers and others. An audio disk is sometimes packaged with this book, and this gives original interviews in Spanish for 18 of those persons interviewed and featured in the book. Book has many photos, and a bibliography for further reading. - from Amzon
