Oye, comemierda: el autor es boriqua.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Bootstraps: From an American Academic of Color (Paperback)
Of course, anyone who has actually read the book will know that Villanueva is from a Puerto Rican family, not a Mexican one.Not that it matters. This is an important book for anyone in English studies, not just rhetoric & composition. Read it now.

A Mexican who became a success, in spite of the odds!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Bootstraps: From an American Academic of Color (Paperback)
This is a true story of the prejudice that Mexicans and people of color face in school and and in life. Luckily, he found a teacher who understood him, and gave him hope. Today, Victor Villanueva is a leader of his field, but still many people who would accept him if he was white, will not accept him because of his Mexican heritage.
