More DescriptionCultural Writing. Poetry. Fiction. Essays. NEW TO NORTH AMERICA is a collection of fiction, essays, poetry and memoir that documents the experiences and contributions of three critical generations from immigrant to second generation American. While the complex subject of immigration has been oversimplified by national headlines, the voices of immigrants have often been excluded from the debate. Our authors examine issues of identity, memory, assimilation, language, acceptance, struggle and the presence of "the American Dream." Used in history, anthropology, ethnic studies, geography and college composition classes, this text continues to voice relevant cultural themes.
