Saturday, March 10, 2012. Re-Flection of My Essence. The Reflection of My Essence by Morales, gives us great imagery of the many cultures. I like how Morales describes the many different cultures he embodies as homes that are not able to be returned to, revisited or traveled to again! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). In My Good Books.

http://latlit2012.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 27, 2012. Identity in "A Day without a Mexican". A Day without a Mexican, directed by Sergio Arau. Was defiantly an interesting movie. While being a unique and sometimes humorous; the film looked at the very important issue of how the majority reacts to the minority, in this case the Latinos. In a way this movie address the theme of identity, asking who are the Latinos and how are they seen in the eyes of the majority. A fun fact is that the actress playing Lila, Yareli Arizmendi. My name...

LatLit2012: Mirror Exercise
http://latlit2012.blogspot.com/2012/03/mirror-exercise.html
Saturday, March 10, 2012. I continue to stare into the mirror. I see a messy room, clothes in an organized chaos. Books filling every inch of the bookcase. A squirrel perched on the trunk of a tree outside the window to a backdrop of cloudy skies. I see the mile long line at the chief, with a different flavor of the week every week. I see my friends hanging out, running around and playing games in a large backyard. March 10, 2012 at 2:04 PM. I like your reflection piece. I like the way you touch on d...
