Title: Every Latino and knowledge-seeking Anglo: read this book!
Product review: White tortilla is a fine phrase to describe the ambiguous career and social challenges facing a light-skinned, pure Latino man who is caught in the complex, dual role of operating in two different cultures. His father told him to NEVER speak Spanish at home! This fine book describes, through humor and anecdote, the identity conflict and practical difficulties shared by millions of Hispanics. Moreover, it is a story about any American who reflects, or was raised within, an ethnic culture while living in an Anglo-controlled world. Dr. Diaz writes in a smooth, literate style and uses dialogue especially well. The book is a must-read for those with heart, Latinos, students, politicians and educators. Enjoy!
