During the formative years of Dallas, Texas, the Hispanic
population moved in circles that united and developed as a uniform
society, building and molding the community to reach out and
redefine themselves. But over the years, this trend slowly
subsided. By uniting and bridging our differences, we can better
appreciate today's increasingly misunderstood Hispanic culture.
From personal experiences in an impoverished and violent
neighborhood to his political race for the House of
Representatives, author Tony Aguilar details the political history
of Dallas and the rising tide of Hispanic immigrants in Texas. He
also discusses political trends and shifts, and customs in various
Mexican communities, including:
* The birth of the Tejano
* The era of the dead horse
* The flashback movement
* Illegal immigration
Aguilar addresses the faults and possible short-comings that
await political leaders with regard to the increasing Hispanic
population. He also demonstrates the influence of family and
tradition in modern politics. Texas Tide serves as a survival guide
and road map to success for anyone interested in entering or
continuing in politics in the American Southwest.
