Fellner for the support and encouragement she has given me. Our shared passion for the field of Chicanx Studies (and Texas) created a space in which I had both her knowledge to draw from and the freedom to pursue my research. There is no doubt that I developed both intellectually and personally under her tutelage. My heartfelt thanks also go to Dr. Marion Rohrleitner for her guidance and her unwavering belief in my project. During my fieldwork in El Paso, she not only opened up her home to me, but also organized numerous opportunities for me to network and to present my research. Her commitment has been instrumental to the completion of this work. I gratefully acknowledge grants received from the Saarland University GradUS Global funding program. It has been my honor also to receive a research fellowship from the University of Texas at Austin, Center for Mexican-American Studies, LILLAS Benson Latin American Collection. My deepest gratitude must go to the five founding members of the Librotraficante Movement—Laura Acosta, Tony Díaz, Liana López, Lupe Méndez, and Bryan Parras. They have been unwavering in their support at every step of this project. I shall be forever grateful. As a group and individually they have welcomed me into their work, into their lives, and into the community. I am humbled by how much they have shared and how much they have given of themselves so that I could complete my work. May this dissertation honor them. Grateful thanks also go to Dr. Sean Arce, co-founder and former director of the Tuscon Unified School District’s Mexican American Studies program, the dismantling of which was the catalyst for the founding of the Librotraficante Movement. Dr. Arce gave me full access to the program’s materials and to his time. His guidance and support has proved invaluable. I am indepted to the generosity of Carolina Hinojosa-Cisneros and Griselda Muñoz; 6 they are two exceptional writers whose poetry and activism speaks so powerfully of life in the Borderlands. Their welcome and their trust have been extraordinary. I am honored to share their stunning necessary voices. The support

  • Transculturalism in Chicano Literature, Visual Art, and Film Master's
    Transculturalism in Chicano Literature, Visual Art, and Film Master’s Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Brandeis University Department of Global Studies Jerónimo Arellano, Advisor In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in Global Studies by Sarah Mabry August 2018 Transculturalism in Chicano Literature, Visual Art, and Film Copyright by Sarah Mabry © 2018 Dedication Here I acknowledge those individuals by name and those remaining anonymous that have encouraged and inspired me on this journey. First, I would like to dedicate this to my great grandfather, Jerome Head, a surgeon, published author, and painter. Although we never had the opportunity to meet on this earth, you passed along your works of literature and art. Gleaned from your manuscript entitled A Search for Solomon, ¨As is so often the way with quests, whether they be for fish or buried cities or mountain peaks or even for money or any other goal that one sets himself in life, the rewards are usually incidental to the journeying rather than in the end itself…I have come to enjoy the journeying.” I consider this project as a quest of discovery, rediscovery, and delightful unexpected turns. I would like mention one of Jerome’s six sons, my grandfather, Charles Rollin Head, a farmer by trade and an intellectual at heart. I remember your Chevy pickup truck filled with farm supplies rattling under the backseat and a tape cassette playing Mozart’s piano sonata No. 16. This old vehicle metaphorically carried a hard work ethic together with an artistic sensibility.

While historians have written prolifically about the Ludlow Massacre, which took place during the 1913- 1914 Colorado coal strike led by the United Mine Workers of America, there has been a curious lack of attention to the Columbine Massacre that occurred not far away within the 1927-1928 Colorado coal strike, led by the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW).

  • Three Theories of the Effects of Language Education Programs: an Empirical Evaluation of Bilingual and English-Only Policies Jeff Macswan University of Maryland
    Annual Review of Applied Linguistics, 37 (2017), pp. 218–240. © Cambridge University Press, 2017 doi: 10.1017/S0267190517000137 Three Theories of the Effects of Language Education Programs: An Empirical Evaluation of Bilingual and English-Only Policies Jeff MacSwan University of Maryland Marilyn S. Thompson Arizona State University Kellie Rolstad University of Maryland Kara McAlister Arizona State University Gerda Lobo Arizona State University abstract We empirically evaluated three theoretical models—the threshold hypothesis, trans- fer theory, and time-on-task theory—for educating English language learners (ELLs), with a focus on the role of language factors in explaining achievement differences among ELLs. Participants were 196 sixth graders with Spanish language backgrounds who started learning English in kindergarten and then were continuously enrolled in a U.S. school. Structural equation modeling was used to estimate the extent to which Spanish and English language and literacy—skills that are emphasized differentially in competing theories for educating ELLs—predict academic achievement assessed in English. Results indicated that Spanish literacy, over and above English language proficiency, was substantially predictive of academic achievement, consistent with the transfer theory. This model was a more focused version of the threshold hypoth- esis, in that the weaker predictor of Spanish oral language proficiency was excluded. Time-on task theory was not supported. introduction Young second language (L2) learners in U.S. schools, or bilingual learners, repre- sent a substantial proportion of the school-age population. Known in policy con- texts as English language learners (ELLs), these students represented 9.3% of all U.S. public school children in 2013–2014.

The turbulence of the Mexican Revo­ lution began in 1910 with the overthrow of Porfirio Diaz by the movement of Francisco 1. Madero. In 1913 !he tenuous regime of Madero was violently replaced by that of Victoriano Huerta, and the turmoil continued unabated. Faced with major revolutions led by Venustiano Carranza, Francisco Villa, and Emiliano Zapata, Huerta fled Mexico in mid-1914 as the opposition armies con­ verged on Mexico City. Despite the efforts of the new victors to achieve a unified government at the Convention of Aguascalientes in 1914, Carranza's Constitutionalists soon fell into quarreling among themselves and the Revolution entered its most violent phase. Representing the Constitutionalist government of Mexico, Venustiano Carranza and Alvaro Obreg6n arrayed themselves against Francisco Villa and Emiliano Zapata, who purported to represent the cause of the Convention.
