SOMOS
PRIMOS April 2005
http://www.somosprimos.com/sp2005/spapr05/spapr05.htm
Hi. . for a fun historical perspective on how April 1st is observed in
different countries, look under Miscellaneous.
You'll find in this issue, numerous programs/projects for encouraging
gathering pubic histories and the Hispanic/Latino perspective, a few
are . . .from the Library of Congress' "Voices of War "
to Dr. José Angel Gutiérrez, "Tejano
Voices" Collection," the Utah "Saints at War Project," to Daniel Olivas request
for short fiction, and the National Latino
Writers Conference in New Mexico. It is certainly through the
submissions of readers that Somos Primos is enriched.
Just pointing out a
few items, you'll read the . . .
~ words of high school student's responding to Ruben Salaz'
short story, The Wall
~concerns of Puerto Rican teacher, Manuel Hernandez that
students are not writing
~conclusions of Rafael Ojeda, how else will our
children know of our contributions if we do not write them

provoked original music to be written and shared about General Bernardo
de Galvez

Plus, please read the foreword to Dr. Ruben Salaz Marquez's
book, EPIC concerning how history is dangerous!! It is under
history.
I hope this spring will bring about a commitment by all of us to
gather and share our family memories. It is the accumulation of all of
our stories which will correct the misunderstandings about who we are.
Warm regards, Mimi
