This richly detailed reference offers a strengths-based survey of
Latinx immigrant experience in the United States. Spanning eleven
countries across the Americas and the Caribbean, the book uses a
psychohistorical approach using the words of immigrants at
different processes and stages of acculturation and acceptance.
Coverage emphasizes the sociopolitical contexts, particularly in
relation to the US, that typically lead to immigration, the vital
role of the Spanish language and cultural values, and the journey
of identity as it evolves throughout the creation of a new life in
a new and sometimes hostile country. This vivid material is
especially useful to therapists working with Latinx clients
reconciling current and past experience, coping with prejudice and
other ongoing challenges, or dealing with trauma and loss. Included
among the topics: * Argentines in the U.S.: migration and
continuity. * Chilean Americans: a micro cultural Latinx group. *
Cuban Americans: freedom, hope, endurance, and the American Dream.
* The drums are calling: race, nation, and the complex history of
Dominicans. * The Obstacle is the Way: resilience in the lives of
Salvadoran immigrants in the U.S. * Cultura y familia:
strengthening Mexican heritage families. * Puerto Ricans on the
U.S. mainland. With its multiple layers of lived experience and
historical analysis, Latinx Immigrant, is inspiring and powerful
reading for sociologists, economists, mental health educators and
practitioners, and healthcare providers.
