Congratulations to MALCS chair Adriana Ayala<\/strong> on the recent completion of her dissertation in history at UT Austin! Adriana’s diss was titled “Negotiating Race Relations Through Activism: Women Activists and Women’s Organizations in San Antonio, Texas During the 1920s<\/em>.” She is currently the chair of liberal studies at the National Hispanic University in San Jose, California. Congrats, Dra. Ayala!<\/p>\n

Congrats tambi\u00c3\u00a9n to Anna Sandoval<\/a><\/strong> at \"LasCalifornia State University, Long Beach, and ex-oficio chair Josie Mendez-Negrete<\/a><\/strong> at UT San Antonio. Both MALCSistas recently gained tenure, and can take a big sigh of relief….for about five seconds, probably. Anna is associate professor of Chicano and Latino Studies<\/a> at CSULB, and Josie is Associate Professor of Bilingual – Bicultural Studies at UTSA. Josie is also pleased to announce the re-release of her novel Las Hijas de Juan<\/em><\/a> by Duke University Press as part of the Latina America Otherwise series (edited by Sonia Saldivar-Hull, Walter Mignolo, and Irene Silverblatt). The new edition is beautifully produced, in a manner suited to this painfully beautiful memoir, which Norma L. Cardenas describes as a “childhood story of courage and resistance to patriarchy too frightening to be imagined and too hurtful to be forgotten.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
