Reviews
"This study offers a compelling account of how Latinos in Arizona organized and increased their electoral clout to change the landscape of state politics. Through grassroots networks and dogged determination, Latinos successfully pushed back on anti-immigrant and anti-Latino policies and politicians. As the largest ethnoracial minority in the nation, Latinos will continue to command attention as governing structures incorporate (or not) their participation in communities across the country."--Christine Marie Sierra, co-author of Contested Transformation: Race, Gender, and Political Leadership in 21st Century America "This book is a fascinating historical account of how Latinos in Arizona have faced political disenfranchisement and even outright hostility to their rights and even their very presence in the state and their recent mobilization to push back. It is a book that comes to add substantially to our understanding of how the largest minority in the United States, Latinos, is helping to realign politics--in Arizona, the Southwest, and beyond. This book is a text that shows the reader a microcosm of how minorities have had to struggle to expand political rights through history--first African Americans in the South and now Latinos in the Southwest."--Tony Payan, author of The Three U.S.-Mexico Border Wars: Drugs, Immigration, and Homeland Security, "This study offers a compelling account of how Latinos in Arizona organized and increased their electoral clout to change the landscape of state politics.

While the authors introduce an overwhelmingly broad cast of characters, organizations, and legislation to their readers, it makes a convincing case for how Latinos have revitalized Democratic Party politics in Arizona."--Emiliano Aguilar, Journal of Arizona History, "This study offers a compelling account of how Latinos in Arizona organized and increased their electoral clout to change the landscape of state politics.

Empowered! focuses on the legacy of Latino activism within politics. It raises important arguments about those who stand to profit financially and politically by stoking fear of immigrants and how resilient politicians and grassroots organizers have worked to counteract that fear mongering. Recognizing the long history of disenfranchisement and injustice surrounding minority communities in the United States, this book outlines the struggle to make Arizona a more just and equal place for Latinos to live., Empowered examines Arizona's recent political history and how it has been shaped and propelled by Latinos.

    This hardback book is of the highest quality, has a fine appearance , arrived in perfect condition, and is an excellent value. On what I was not asked about this time, communicating with the seller would have required using email outside of the eBay system, because they do not accept eBay messages, the book was well packed in a purpose-designed cardboard box, the shipping was faster than I expected for the bound media rate, and the book was exactly as described and pictured.
