    Many years ago, laying out on the trampoline late at night, I remember hearing the coyotes howl and yip in the field bordering my friend’s house. The sound so frightened us that we promptly rushed inside. To children that grew up never truly in the country, only on the edge of town, coyotes seemed so wild. However, as Dan Flores illuminates in his book, Coyote America: A Natural and Supernatural History, that encounter was not an unusual experience at all. In the past century coyotes have spread across all reaches of the United States.…

But how successful/how lasting was the influence of Zapata and/or agrarian reform on both the Mexican Revolution and present day Mexico. Both the murals I chose convey the same message but in different forms for instance “Liberation of the Peon” describes the conditions for the poor/ lower class citizens. Through both the imagery of what looks to be a bunch of men and there horse's freeing another man from a sake he's that he's tied to, and through…

Individuals who were seen as Mexican outlaws were defined by “Eric Hobsbawn’s model of the social bandit: “ideally a young, unmarried peasant who commits an act which the state regards as criminal, but which most of his peers regard as justifiable or heroic” (Glenn 174). However, it was the Anglo injustices that forced these individuals into outlawry. Laws were imposed onto Mexicans because of the racial difference thus creating a social order naming Anglos at the top and Mexicans below them.…

    In his book, Sleuthing The Alamo, James E. Crisp goes beyond the mere description of the historical events that took place during the Texas Revolution. Crisp’s passion to uncover why certain events of the Texas Revolution were remembered in a specific way, propelled him to closely examine and critically analyze the motive behind a number of writers and historians. It was this determination that forced Crisp to take no for an answer and to “attempt to separate Texas myth from Texas history”. What makes Crisp’s book Sleuthing The Alamo so unique, in contrast with most historical books, is that Crisp involves himself in his text in such a way that it becomes very personal to him. Additionally, Crisp doesn’t conceal his own personal biases as…

    In the year of 1908, “60,000 to 100,000 Mexicans immigrated to the United States” due to a recession (Davenport 67). They left during the rule of Porfirio Díaz, who ruled Mexico as a dictatorship from 1876 to 1910.
