The number of blacks and Hispanics elected to office in American cities has grown dramatically. The media frequently report on their victories in local elections and run features on black and Hispanic mayors. From none in 1960, there are now 27 black and three Hispanic mayors of cities with populations over 50,000 (Joint Center, 1985; National Association of Latino Elected Officials, 1986).The trend is obvious, its significance disputed. Is it likely to continue, or can we already see signs of reversal? How much power do local black and Hispanic officials have? How was it achieved? And what difference does it make in any case? Can blacks and Hispanics in office strike a better bargain with the investors and financial institutions they depend on for development than previous administrations? In a period of fiscal stringency and reduced federal spending, can they carve out a larger piece of the municipal pie for minority populations? Can minority officeholders make any headway against the growing tide of unemployment and poverty, as help from the federal level is dismantled? Although the growing number of minority officials suggests political integration and racial/ethnic succession, do the limited powers of cities in a federal system and a capitalistic society render that apparent gain more symbolic than real?

Less than 40% of the U.S. population achieves the recommended amount of leisure-time physical activity (LTPA) recommended by the American College of Sports Medicine [ACSM (>150 minutes/week of moderate-intensity or equivalent vigorous-intensity LTPA)]. The number of Hispanic/Latino men and women who report being physically inactive is disproportionately higher than non-Hispanic/Latinos. The purpose of this investigation is to evaluate factors which influence the achievement of meeting ACSM recommendations for LTPA among adults with Hispanic/Latino ethnicity and whites (non-Hispanic/Latino) in the southern United States. Self-reported data collected as part of the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) was analyzed in male and female Hispanic/Latinos and non-Hispanic/Latino whites using the Andersen Model and Chi Square Analysis to examine the association between variables. Hispanic/Latino men/women were significantly less likely to meet the ACSM recommendations (> 150 minutes/week) compared to non-Hispanic/Latinos. Lower amounts of income, education, and access to health care were all significant factors of whether Hispanic/Latinos in the Deep South achieved the ACSM recommendations for LTPA. Although the percentage of overweight Hispanic/Latinos was considerably higher than White (non-Hispanic/Latino), reported obesity was highest among Whites (non-Hispanic/Latino). LTPA between the two groups differed significantly, suggesting that not achieving the physical activity recommendations is associated with being overweight, but other factors may also contribute to being overweight and obesity.Key words. physical activity, Hispanics, leisure, obesity, overweight, disease.Resumen. Menos del 40% de la población de los Estados Unidos cumple con la cantidad de actividad física de tiempo libre (AFTL) recomendada por el Colegio Americano de Medicina Deportiva [ACSM (> 150 minutos/semana de AFTL de intensidad moderada o su equivalente de intensidad vigorosa)]. La cantidad de hombres y mujeres hispanos o latinos que reportan ser físicamente inactivos es desproporcionadamente mayor que quienes no lo son. El propósito de esta investigación es evaluar los factores que pueden influir en alcanzar las recomendaciones del ACSM para AFTL en adultos de origen étnico hispano o latino y en caucásicos (que no son hispanos o latinos) en la región Sur de los Estados Unidos. Se recolectaron datos de cuestionarios autoadministrados que son parte del Sistema de Vigilancia de Factores de Riesgo del Comportamiento (Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, BRFSS), los cuales se analizaron en hombres y mujeres hispanos o latinos y en caucásicos que no lo eran, por medio del Modelo de Andersen y pruebas de Chi cuadrado para examinar la asociación entre variables. Se encontró que los hombres y las mujeres latinos tenían una menor probabilidad de cumplir con las recomendaciones del ACSM (> 150 minutos/semana) en comparación con quienes no eran hispanos o latinos. Menores ingresos económicos, educación y acceso a los servicios de salud fueron factores significativos que condicionaban si los hispanos o latinos en el extremo Sur lograban las recomendaciones del ACSM para AFTL. Aunque el porcentaje de hispanos o latinos con sobrepeso fue considerablemente mayor que los caucásicos (no hispanos o latinos), la obesidad reportada fue mayor entre los caucásicos (no hispanos o latinos). La AFTL entre los dos grupos fue estadísticamente diferente, lo cual sugiere que no alcanzar las recomendaciones de actividad física se asocia con tener sobrepeso; sin embargo, otros factores también pueden contribuir en tener sobrepeso y obesidad.Palabras claves. actividad física, hispanos, ocio, obesidad, sobrepeso, enfermedad.

RESUMEN: Las fuentes documentales que contienen la correspondencia de Quevedo que ha llegado hasta nosotros se encuentran principalmente en la Biblioteca Nacional de España, en el Archivo Histórico Nacional, en la Hispanic Society of America y en la Biblioteca Menéndez Pelayo de Santander. La incorporación, hace algo más de dos años, de un nuevo manuscrito a la Biblioteca Nacional de España, convierte a este establecimiento en la institución que alberga la mayor y mejor colección de cartas de Quevedo: las dirigidas a Sancho de Sandoval (autógrafas en su mayor parte), al duque de Medinaceli y a Francisco de Oviedo y, ahora, las escritas a los jesuitas Pedro Pimentel y Juan Antonio Velázquez. De estas últimas cartas existe una copia en un manuscrito de la Hispanic Society of America que formó parte de la biblioteca de Gregorio Mayans. Según el testimonio que precede a las cartas, estas fueron copiadas de otro manuscrito. La incorporación, tras atravesar dos subastas, de un nuevo manuscrito a la Biblioteca Nacional con copias de esas cartas, plantea la posibilidad de que se trate del que sirvió de modelo a aquella copia. En este artículo vamos a revisar esta posibilidad a través del cotejo del contenido de ambos documentos. ABSTRACT: The documental sources that contain the Quevedo’s correspondence that has reached us can mainly be found in the Biblioteca Nacional de España, the Archivo Histórico Nacional, the Hispanic Society of America, and the Biblioteca Menéndez Pelayo in Santander. The incorporation, over two years ago, of a new manuscript in the Biblioteca Nacional de España, has made this institution the one with the largest and of the highest quality collection of Quevedo’s letters: those addressed to Sancho de Sandoval (mostly holographs), to the Duke of Medinaceli and to Francisco de Oviedo, and now, those written to the Jesuits Pedro Pimentel and Juan Antonio Velázquez. There is a copy of these last letters in a manuscript of the Hispanic Society of America that was part of the library of Gregorio Mayans. According to the testimony that precedes these letters, they were copied from another manuscript. The incorporation, after going through two auctions, of a new manuscript in the Biblioteca Nacional de España with copies of these letters has risen the possibility that this new manuscript served as a model for that copy. The aim of this paper is to analyze this possibility by collating the content of both documents.

In the countless conversations about U.S. immigration policy that I have had with Mexican Americans of varied backgrounds and political orientations, seldom have my interlocutors failed to remind me that “We were here first,” or that “This was our land and you stole it from us.” Even a moderate Mexican American politician like former San Antonio Mayor Henry Cisneros sounds the same theme in a national news magazine:It is no accident that these regions have the names they do—Los Angeles, San Francisco, Colorado, Montana.…It is a rich history that Americans have been led to believe is an immigrant story when, in fact, the people who built this area in the first place were Hispanics.

América Latina ha sido desde siempre objeto de controversia en España, aunque últimamente con mayor intensidad se ha convertido en materia de utilización partidista, especialmente por parte de un bloque conservador que se esfuerza en convertir hechos y procesos latinoamericanos en elementos de confrontación política interna española. También las izquierdas hispanas tienen presente a América latina en su acción política, y padecen una elevada desinformación, mientras mantienen clichés de otra época. El artículo atiende a tres casos en la confrontación derecha/izquierda de los últimos tiempos: Venezuela, ariete conservador contra el Gobierno de Pedro Sánchez; México, como excitante del nacionalismo españolista tras la exigencia de López Obrador; y, finalmente, Bolivia tras la forzada salida del poder de Evo Morales.

<p><strong>Resumen </strong>Estados Unidos, según datos de <em>World University Rankings</em>, cuenta en su haber con seis de las diez mejores universidades del mundo. Según la Oficina del Censo de los Estados Unidos, la población latina ha representado la mayor parte del crecimiento demográfico del país durante la última década (56%). Pero desafortunadamente, este crecimiento no se ha visto reflejado en la educación superior. Mientras que los estudiantes hispanos se están matriculando en mayor número cada año, los profesores latinos, y muy especialmente las profesoras, no han visto un crecimiento similar, constituyendo sólo el 4% del profesorado universitario en todo el país. Este artículo pretende ofrecer una visión general de la situación actual con respecto al profesorado femenino de origen hispano en la educación superior estadounidense y analizar el importante papel desempeñado por el mismo por medio de sus figuras más relevantes o destacadas. Para ello, debido a la naturaleza de nuestra investigación, vamos a seguir una metodología histórica, teniendo en cuenta que en la elaboración del estudio nos hemos basado en una combinación de fuentes primarias y secundarias. Y como conclusión final, un objetivo importante debería ser el aumento del profesorado universitario femenino de origen hispano en el sistema universitario estadounidense.</p><p><strong>Abstract </strong>The United States, according to the World University Rankings, has six out of the ten best universities in the world. According to the United States Census Bureau, the Latino population has accounted for most of the country's population growth during the last decade (56%). But unfortunately, this growth has not been reflected in higher education. While Hispanic students are enrolling in higher numbers each year, Latino teachers, and very especially the female ones, have not seen a similar growth, making up only around the 4% of university faculty nationwide. This article aims to provide an overview of the current situation regarding Hispanic female professors in American higher education and analyze the important role played by them throughout their most relevant or prominent figures. For this, due to the nature of our research, we will follow a historical methodology, taking into account that in the elaboration of the study we have based ourselves on a combination of primary and secondary sources. And as a final conclusion, we will conclude that an important goal should be then the increase of female university professors of Hispanic origin in the higher education system in the United States.</p><p><strong>Keywords </strong>Hispanic population, university system, Hispanic professors, influence, educational charges. </p>

Este trabajo defiende la íntima relación existente entre conciencia sociolingüística y pluricentrismo lingüístico y propone analizar esta vinculación en profundidad, dado que la percepción de los hablantes hacia las distintas variedades y variantes lingüísticas es fundamental en la configuración y surgimiento de modelos idiomáticos. En este sentido, y a la luz de los datos aportados por el Proyecto actitudinal LIAS, Linguistic Identity and Attitudes in Spanish-speaking Latin America, se estudia, con una metodología cuantitativa, el grado de aceptación y legitimación que muestran los hablantes nativos de español de diferentes procedencias hacia el resto de variedades hispanas. Solo con una mayor atención al componente actitudinal se puede determinar el grado de ejemplaridad que los hablantes confieren a unas u otras variedades nacionales del español.

This chapter examines the underpinnings and limits of ethno-nationalism in the politically pivotal state of Pennsylvania by tracking the career of Lou Barletta, US congressman and former mayor of Hazleton in the declining rustbelt area of Luzerne County. Often known as Donald Trump’s political godfather, Barletta rose to political fame by attacking Hispanic immigrants as criminals and sponsoring severe restrictions on their rights. He went on to win a seat in the US House and become one of the first members of Congress to endorse Trump’s 2016 candidacy. The president then recruited Barletta to run for the Senate in 2018 and strongly backed his campaign based on highlighting threats from immigrants. But Barletta lost, illuminating the limits of anti-immigrant appeals in statewide and national politics.

The Maya civilization developed in Mesoamerica persisted approximately 3,000 years and was one of the most advanced of its time. Mayas had the only known full writing system, as well as highly developed mathematical and astronomical systems. They also developed sophisticated architecture and arts. The Maya area of settlement ranged from the Yucatan Peninsula through Guatemala, Belize, and part of the Mexican states of Tabasco and Chiapas, as well as parts of Honduras and El Salvador. The Maya civilization reached its peak of power and influence in the Preclassic period, from 2000 BCE to 250 CE. Despite the profound impact of the Mayan civilization on Mesoamerica and neighboring populations, studies of genetic variation of ancient Maya populations in pre-European times are scarce. Therefore, this work examines evidence in ancient DNA from archaeological sites in the states of Yucatan, Chiapas, Quintana Roo, and Tabasco. We report data analysis from sequences of the mtDNA hypervariable region I (HV1) from bone remains found in excavations of archaeological sites of the Maya region and their relationship with ancient and contemporary communities in this region, including Central and South America, as well as with Asia and Beringia. We discuss the results in the light of the influence of climate change in the area and relate them to evidence from language change. Gene flow within the Maya area occurred with a directional flow to South America in the Preclassic and Classic eras of the Mesoamerican chronology. This is supported by historical documentation, that has shown that the ancestors of the Maya civilization entered the Yucatan Peninsula after the first movement of people from Northern Asia into the Americas, with later migrations of the Maya ancestors to Mesoamerica, through Central America and the Caribbean, and toward the northern portions of South America.

This chapter reviews Progressive Black Democrat Andrew Gillum’s 2018 campaign for governor of Florida, showing how he came within 0.4 percent of defeating his White Republican, Trump-supported, opponent Ron DeSantis. It relates how Gillum’s upset primary victory over five white, better known Democratic opponents made headlines everywhere. He energized oft-neglected Black, Hispanic, and young voters. In the Republican primary, DeSantis upset the state’s popular Agriculture Commissioner. In the hard fought general election, Gillum attacked DeSantis as “racist,” for a “dog whistle” comment on Fox News. DeSantis labeled Gillum “corrupt,” as a mayor failing to report free tickets to a Broadway play. Gillum led in the polls, but higher Republican turnout gave DeSantis the win, although Gillum’s near success launched him onto the national stage. A scandalous personal incident, followed by rehab, a redemptive message, a popular podcast, and the state’s growing racial and age diversity have kept the door open. The chapter goes on to explain that the 2018 Florida gubernatorial campaign showcased the competitiveness of a Black statewide candidate in a southern state that has long swung between the two major parties. It then outlines how Florida has, in many respects, led southern political change, especially the evolution of racial politics beyond merely White and Black, to incorporate a widely diverse population of migrants and immigrants.

A deep history of Mesoamerica traces how the transition from nomadic foragers to settled farmers of maize and other crops resulted in the first villages, unifying art styles, and later cities, states, and empires. Cultures such as the Olmecs, Mayas, Teotihuacanos, and Toltecs preceded the Aztecs, who incorporated elements of all of them, particularly the last two from the same region of central Mexico. This chapter examines millennia of Mesoamerican history known through archaeology, the history of art, and epigraphic study of the few extant Native texts from the pre-Hispanic era. It explores how Mesoamericans first cultivated maize and other crops to establish an agricultural base somewhat familiar to readers as Mexican and Central American cuisine; the development of the earliest team sports involving rubber balls; urbanization into populous cities featuring pyramidal temple complexes; the invention of hieroglyphic scripts and the concept of zero before it existed in Europe; and the political rise and collapse of successive civilizations prior to the Aztecs.

This chapter assesses how the nation's largest school district, New York City, is tackling its own Advanced Placement (AP) challenge. In 2018, the city's Department of Education (DOE) housed more AP students than all but a dozen states. It is therefore not surprising that the challenge of effecting any major change in how AP works in Gotham is gargantuan when placed alongside a city like Fort Worth. Yet the story of AP in the Big Apple shares many of the same dynamics seen in Texas. As recently as 2015–16, more than a hundred of the city's four-hundred-plus high schools offered no AP courses at all—and many of those schools are located in poor neighborhoods full of African American, Hispanic, and immigrant youngsters. Over the years, municipal leaders sought in various ways to rectify this obvious inequity, even as they undertook myriad other high school reforms. One such growth initiative came in September of 2013, when the DOE joined forces with the College Board and the National Math and Science Initiative (NMSI) to launch an “AP Expansion” program meant to last three years. Two years later, Mayor Bill de Blasio declared—as part of his own ambitious education initiatives—that AP would be introduced into every high school that did not already have it. The chapter then analyzes in detail these two citywide initiatives, including their early results and some lessons that may be drawn from their experience to date.
