Описание:

Consuelo (Chelo) Cordero was born in Havana, Cuba. She attended the American Dominican Academy in Havana for the first ten years of her education. Chelo arrived in the USA in 1961 and finished her high school at Notre Dame Academy in Miami. She earned a Bachelors Degree Magna Cum Laude from Barry College in Miami, and a M.A.T. in Spanish from Georgia State University in Atlanta. Chelo taught languages, especially Spanish, and was Chair of the Foreign Language Department at St. Pius X High School in Atlanta.


Jes s Le n was born in Holgu n, Cuba, and attended several schools in Cuba. He arrived in the USA in October 1960, graduating from Archbishop Curley High School in Miami. Jes s earned a B.S. in Electrical Engineering and a M.S. in Systems Engineering from the University of Florida. He went on to complete all the requirements but the final dissertation for a Ph.D. at the Georgia Institute of Technology of Atlanta; he later earned a M.B.A. from Georgia State University. Jes s worked in several companies in the US and Europe, including various start-ups, and retired as SVP and Chief Development Officer after twelve years at Ciena Corporation.


Some say that Chelo and Jes s were meant to be because her last name, Cordero, translates to lamb while his last name, Le n, translates to lion, a reminder of the Biblical saying, and the lion shall lay down by the lamb. They were married in Miami in 1967.

Chelo and Jes s wrote their memoirs to convey to their grandchildren the importance of a strong faith in God, the value of family, hard work and perseverance, and the impact of their Cuban heritage in their lives. Chelo wishes to be remembered as a loving and grateful person that always tried to treat others with kindness. Jes s wishes to be remembered as a person who tried to live in accordance with his Christian upbringing and beliefs.

Описание: Growing up in a rural village at the height of the Mexican Revolution, Diego Le n has many first loves: singing, dancing, and hearing the stories of his ancestors, the P'urh pecha. But when tragedy strikes, young Diego is sent to the city to live with his white, aristocratic grandparents, who insist he forget his roots and groom him to take over the family business. Under pressure to enter a profession--and a life--he cares nothing for, and haunted by the violence once again erupting all around him, Diego flees his war-torn country to forge his own destiny. Diego arrives in Hollywood in 1927, when silent films are giving way to talkies, Prohibition is in full swing, and "Latin lover" types are sought out even as they are looked down upon. Working his way up in the movie business with talent and ingenuity, Diego soon figures out that getting one's face on the silver screen has as much to do with what goes on behind the camera as what goes on in front of it. But the closer Diego comes to stardom, the more he finds that the past is not so easily escaped, as he is drawn again and again to the painful legacy of history and the wounds of his homeland. A sweeping, sensual novel of love, ambition, and identity, The Five Acts of Diego Le n bears all the marks of a classic Hollywood story: romance, betrayal, glamour, and an underdog hero to root for till the end.

Описание: Sites of Memory in Spain and Latin America is a collection of essays that explores historical memory at the intersection of political, cultural, social, and economic forces in the contexts of Spain and Latin America. The essays here focus on a variety of forms of memory-from the most concrete to the performative-that resist forgetting and unite individuals against hegemonic memory. The volume comprises four thematic sections that focus on Chile, Spain, Argentina, Venezuela, Mexico, Peru, and the Dominican Republic. Keeping in line with the concept informing this collection, that the past returns politically to haunt the present, the four sections move from the contemporary context to the colonial and pre-Columbian eras in Latin America. For all its diversity, the researchers' interdisciplinary methodology displayed in this collection brings to light processes that would otherwise have remained illegible under a more narrow interpretative approach to historical memory. This volume focuses on the processes of remembering in geographies that have been transformed by violence and conflict in Spain and Latin America. In the cases investigated witnessing, trauma, and testimony speak to the urgency of truth and justice; historical memory, therefore, is ultimately a political act.

Описание: In Another Aesthetics Is Possible Jennifer Ponce de León examines the roles that art can play in the collective labor of creating and defending another social reality. Focusing on artists and art collectives in Argentina, Mexico, and the United States, Ponce de León shows how experimental practices in the visual, literary, and performing arts have been influenced by and articulated with leftist movements and popular uprisings that have repudiated neoliberal capitalism and its violence. Whether enacting solidarity with Zapatista communities through an alternate reality game or using surrealist street theater to amplify the more radical strands of Argentina's human rights movement, these artists fuse their praxis with forms of political mobilization from direct-action tactics to economic resistance. Advancing an innovative transnational and transdisciplinary framework of analysis, Ponce de León proposes a materialist understanding of art and politics that brings to the fore the power of aesthetics to both compose and make visible a world beyond capitalism.

Описание:

A member of the Cuban Resistance, Antonio de Le n was arrested on the day of the Bay of Pigs invasion and imprisoned in the fort of El Morro. He escaped execution and immigrated to the US, only to return to try and rescue his family from Cuba. When his boat ran out of fuel in the Atlantic, he was buffeted for hours in high waves in the open ocean, and Antonio was picked up by a Russian freighter. At this time, he had no idea that his life was being protected by an all powerful God who would later totally transform his life and send him as a missionary into the dangerous Guatemalan jungle in the midst of the civil war. Through a series of miracles, God used Antonio to start churches in remote jungle villages. This is a compelling story of grace, providence, protection, and transformation.

"Antonio Manolo de Le n might be the most fascinating man I've ever met and, now, you can meet him too. We like to read stories of daring adventurers not just because they enthrall us, but also because they make us dream. What else might God have for me to do right here, right now? I've personally witnessed Antonio's passion for Christ and seen the power of God at work in and through him. You'll be nourished by his story and inspired toward new adventures with God."

2022 PROSE Award Finalist in Architecture and Urban Planning
2022 Association for Latin American Art Arvey Foundation Book Award, Honorable Mention

Throughout the early twentieth century, waves of migration brought working-class people to the outskirts of Buenos Aires. This prompted a dilemma: Where should these restive populations be situated relative to the city’s spatial politics? Might housing serve as a tool to discipline their behavior?

Enter Antonio Bonet, a Catalan architect inspired by the transatlantic modernist and surrealist movements. Ana María León follows Bonet's decades-long, state-backed quest to house Buenos Aires's diverse and fractious population. Working with totalitarian and populist regimes, Bonet developed three large-scale housing plans, each scuttled as a new government took over. Yet these incomplete plans—Bonet's dreams—teach us much about the relationship between modernism and state power.

Modernity for the Masses finds in Bonet's projects the disconnect between modern architecture’s discourse of emancipation and the reality of its rationalizing control. Although he and his patrons constantly glorified the people and depicted them in housing plans, Bonet never consulted them. Instead he succumbed to official and elite fears of the people's latent political power. In careful readings of Bonet's work, León discovers the progressive erasure of surrealism's psychological sensitivity, replaced with an impulse, realized in modernist design, to contain the increasingly empowered population.
