When President George W. Bush nominated Linda Chavez to be
Secretary of Labor in 2001, few people realized that this
hard-nosed conservative began her career among socialists and labor
union officials, teaching in college affirmative action programs
and writing political propaganda for the Democratic National
Committee."An Unlikely Conservative" chronicles Chavez's journey
from a poverty-stricken childhood to prominence as one of the most
influential public policy advocates in the nation, and the
sometimes shocking experiences that shaped her views along the way.
Are Hispanics making it",achieving the American dream following the
pattern of other ethnic groups? This controversial book shatters
the myth that 20 million His panics,fast becoming the nation's
largest minority,are a permanent underclass. Chavez considers the
radical implications for bilingual education, immigration policy,
and affirmative action.
