Feeling It brings together twelve chapters from researchers in
Chicanx studies, education, feminist studies, linguistics, and
translation studies to offer a cohesive yet broad-ranging
exploration of the issue of affect in the language and learning
experiences of Latinx youth. Drawing on data from an innovative
social justice-oriented university-community partnership based in
young people's social agency and their linguistic and cultural
expertise, the contributors are unified by their focus on a single
year in the history of this partnership; their analytic focus on
race, language, and affect in educational contexts; and their
shared commitment to ethnography, discourse analysis, and
qualitative methods, informed by participatory and social justice
paradigms for research with youth of color. Designed specifically
for use in courses, with theoretical framing by the co-editors and
ethnographic contributions from leading and emergent scholars, this
book is an important and timely resource on affect, race, and
social justice in the United States. Thanks to its
interdisciplinary grounding, Feeling It will be of interest to
future teachers and to researchers and students in applied
linguistics, education, and Latinx studies, as well as related
fields such as anthropology, communication, social psychology, and
sociology.

How Spanish-language radio has influenced American and Latino
discourse on key current affairs issues such as citizenship and
immigration. Winner, Book of the Year presented by the American
Association of Hispanics in Higher Education Honorable Mention for
the 2015 Latino Studies Best Book presented by the Latin American
Studies Association The last two decades have produced continued
Latino population growth, and marked shifts in both communications
and immigration policy. Since the 1990s, Spanish- language radio
has dethroned English-language radio stations in major cities
across the United States, taking over the number one spot in Los
Angeles, Houston, Miami, and New York City. Investigating the
cultural and political history of U.S. Spanish-language broadcasts
throughout the twentieth century, Sounds of Belonging reveals how
these changes have helped Spanish-language radio secure its
dominance in the major U.S. radio markets. Bringing together
theories on the immigration experience with sound and radio
studies, Dolores Ines Casillas documents how Latinos form listening
relationships with Spanish-language radio programming. Using a vast
array of sources, from print culture and industry journals to sound
archives of radio programming, she reflects on institutional
growth, the evolution of programming genres, and reception by the
radio industry and listeners to map the trajectory of
Spanish-language radio, from its grassroots origins to the current
corporate-sponsored business it has become. Casillas focuses on
Latinos' use of Spanish-language radio to help navigate their
immigrant experiences with U.S. institutions, for example in
broadcasting discussions about immigration policies while providing
anonymity for a legally vulnerable listenership. Sounds of
Belonging proposes that debates of citizenship are not always
formal personal appeals but a collective experience heard loudly
through broadcast radio.
