In this powerful and deeply felt polemic memoir, Alejandra Oliva, a Mexican-American translator and immigrant justice activist, offers a chronological document of her experience interpreting at the US-Mexico border, and of the people she has encountered along the way. Tracing her family's long and fluid relationship to the border, each generation born on opposite sides of the Rio Grande, and having worked on asylum cases since 2016, she knows all too well the gravity of taking someone's trauma and delivering it to the warped demands of the American immigration system.

Loved the book not the reader
Revisado: 11-22-23
Alejandra captures the border crisis from a unique perspective and humanizes the souls who bravely and desperately decide to embark on a journey that they believe will result in freedom only to find out that the system they are counting on to protect them is going to further expose them to suffering because they are less than perfect. She also does a beautiful job describing the value of bilingualism and translingualism.
The voice actress is a good reader of English but her difficulty reading Spanish fluently detracts from Alejandra's purposeful inclusion of untranslated text and interferes with the listener's ability to experience the author's full bilingualism.

México es un país racista que niega serlo. Con argumentos como “No es racismo, sino clasismo”, “Acá somos todos mestizos” o “Nunca hubo un sistema segregacionista como en Estados Unidos” negamos que hemos perpetuado la discriminación durante generaciones. Tenoch Huerta, actor de reconocido prestigio y portavoz del debate y la lucha antirracista en México desde hace años, se encarga de rebatir estos y otros mitos acerca del racismo en Orgullo prieto.

A much needed text IN SPANiSH about anti-blackness in Latin America. Tenoch is both eloquent and relatable in his presentation of his lived experiences as a Black Mexican man existing and in the acting world.

Peter Shankman is a busy guy - a media entrepreneur who runs several businesses, gives keynote speeches around the world, hosts a popular podcast, runs marathons and Iron Mans, is a licensed skydiver, dabbles in angel investing, and is a loving father to his young daughter. Simply put, he always seems to have more than 24 hours in a day. How does he do it? Peter attributes his unusually high energy level and extreme productivity to his ADHD.

Great description of ADHD
Revisado: 11-20-21
As a MH professional, I found the explanations and descriptions of ADHD to be accurate and easy to understand for people who do not have ADHD. This is particularly helpful to parents and others who made perceived the behaviors of people with ADHD as willful. The recommendations / life hacks were also excellent. However I feel. Mr. Shankman fails to recognize that his unmedicated success may not be possible for others who are more severely impacted by this neurodivergence. It's also important to understand that a diagnosis does not mean that someone is broken and that this perception is stigmatizing to people with ADHD as well as to those who have other mental health diagnoses.

In this poignant audio piece, Samantha Allen takes listeners along for the wild ride of her own transition: The good, the bad, but mostly, the funny. Because once she began this life-changing journey in earnest, Samantha realized that while the emotional trials of gender dysphoria and self-discovery could be harrowing, there were so many laugh-out-loud moments along this winding road.

Samantha is a wonderful storyteller. She kept us engaged and helped us connect with her experience. She shared hard truths all the while making us laugh. I loved every moment and was left wanting to hear more from her.

An utterly unsentimental journey toward the end of life, Mala is an irreverent exploration of how we live, cope, and survive in the moment. Grounded in Lopez’s distinctive emotional language and sharp humor, this powerful one-woman show dances between doctors and urgent 911 calls, a mother’s growing frailty, and a daughter’s quest for grace - all set during an epic Boston winter. Rather than depict a “right way”, the play opens the door for our universal struggle to support those we love in dying, especially when all we’ve ever focused on is surviving.

Beautiful story about caring for elderly parents
Revisado: 02-23-19
I listened to this story the day after my father in law passed away. I started it not knowing what it was about and was immediately captivated because of how well it reflected the feelings and experiences that my husband and I had been living through in recent days and as we contemplate caring for my Latino parents when their turn arises. This is a beautiful and powerful story of love and all the conflicting feelings that accompany caring for elderly parents.
