SPIT AND PASSION

I found this book to be very rare and uncensored in the way it transmitted its message to the readers. The author present the topic of homosexually and relates it to family, religion, and daily life living in this 12 year girl whom is entering adolescent years. It can be very difficult first of all for hetersexual teens, I can't even fantum to imagine a young latin homosexual girl going through sexuality realization. It was interesting for me the Professor explained how maybe the author came up with the title of the book. It made sense about how physical contact between two people and lust is illustrated through th title. The author is very courage to express very intimate and person feelings she had faced.

                Latina Experience in Care Work 

In this essay by Mary Romero is discusses what care workers in general are faced in a their daily life regardless of race. Nannies are not only latinas it can be european immigrant, African Americans and American Indians as mentioned in this. What I learned from the reading is how the blacks even from when they where emancipated from slavery in the South, were still nannies for some whites. Women were headed to the workforce either office or factory workers, and the blacks in the south were still there to play the role of caring for the children. This occupation is very important to build a solid foundation in the family, because this job you can not put a value or wage amount. I heard this week on the radio that nannies get paid very good money in certain places and certain posh locations. Nannies provide a very important contributions to a solid formation to our society and creating productive citizens in the future since the parents are out in the work force.
