Where the Ox Does Not Plow: A Mexican American Ballad

Thanks to La Bloga for listing this link to a Rigoberto González review of Manuel Peña’s new autobiography:

Peña’s memoir is an insightful study of one man’s journey toward political and social consciousness, and of his discovery that value is not in wages and class comforts, but in self-respect and the appreciation for his imperfect family and community. Education, he tells us, is not limited to the confines of the classroom.
