This anthology of fourteen autobiographical narratives about growing up in America's diverse society takes us all across the United States: to the Watts barrio and idyllic Hawaii; to rural Alabama and the urban centers of New York and Boston; to neighborhoods in San Antonio, Cleveland, and Paterson, New Jersey; to North Dakota's Standing Rock Sioux Reservation and into the grape and cotton fields of the San Joaquin valley .... Some are true stories by and about recent immigrants, others focus on young native-born Americans from a particular cultural background. Gary Soto tells about being a teenager who worked as a farm laborer; Helen Epstein explores the unusual tensions surrounding an ordinary dinnertime with her parents, both concentration camp survivors; Thylias Moss and Judith Ortiz Cofer discover the power of the individual voice to transcend racial and cultural barriers; Lensey Namioka recounts her weird childhood as a girl who excels in math (expected in China, but unusual in the U.S.); Luis J. Rodriguez and Graham Salisbury examine images of manhood, one in the Watts barrio and the other in Hawaii. Also included are powerful narratives by Lee A. Daniels, Tracy Marx, Ved Mehta, Naomi Shihab Nye, Susan Power, Willie Ruff, and Hisaye Yamamoto. Whether lit by humor or darkly intense, these true accounts tell us that who we are has much to do with where we've been.Binding Type: Hardcover

Great product
Color: Black, Size: Small
This is great to store multiple remotes in a small footprint clearing up table room. My 6 year old Grandson loves it also keeping remotes in one area. He operates the TV also. We loved it so much we bought a second for another room.

Perfect for me.
Color: Black, Size: Small
I was a little trepidatious before opening it all up and checking out the holder. I didn't know whether or not the larger remotes I had would fit. How would it work for the bulky / longer TV and Universal Remotes. It worked perfectly.
The holder is small enough to use on a small side table next to the couch. And it's very simple to access. The living room now looks like a living room...rather than Radio Shack gone biserk.
