En él, Daisy Hernández se adentra, con perspicacia y precisión, en uno de los temas más complejos de la vida y la política contemporáneas: la ciudadanía.

A must-read!”—Javier Zamora.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eIn this one-of-a-kind book, Daisy Hernández fiercely interrogates one of the most complicated subjects of contemporary life and politics: citizenship. Braiding memoir, history, and cultural criticism, she exposes the truths and lies of how we define ourselves as a country and a people. Turning to her own family’s stories—her mother arrived from Colombia, while her father was a political refugee from Castro’s Cuba—Hernández shows how the very idea of citizenship is a myth, one of the stories we tell ourselves about the American soul and psyche.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReframing our understanding of what it means to be an American, \u003ci\u003eCitizenship\u003c\/i\u003e is an urgent and necessary account of the laws, customs, and language we use to include and exclude, especially those who come from Latin America. With her scholar’s mind and memoirist’s gift for narrative, Hernández weaves a story both personal and national, while reckoning with our country’s ongoing debate about who belongs and providing fresh ways of thinking about citizenship. At once bracing, fearless, and tender, Citizenship is a powerful portrait of one family’s experiences in the borderlands of citizenship and an honest illumination of the country in which we live.","brand":"Vintage Espanol","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48042936664319,"sku":"9798890987730","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9798890987730_s600x595.jpg?v=1776703436","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9798890987730","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
