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    
~
Galvez project that provoked original music to be written and shared about General Bernardo de Galvez
~events for starting personal history compilation, National Archives/LDS FHCenters
   Jamborees, conferences, and dedicated researchers, such as TAG,
    and really helpful hints undr the file on Family History
~artistic ways in which our visibility is being increased, artist, Sergio Hernandez,
   exhibition, poet César Vallejo honored by BYU.
~first annual Gregorian Chants concert, shared by Jaime Cader
~the 29th annual Anza Trail recognition in Santa Barbara photos and information sent by Michael Hardwick.

~Ray Gonzalez sharing family photos of the Moyza Ranch in Arizona
~fantastic CD available from Dr. Ronald J. Roman on the earliest military colonizers of  New Mexico

New books:

Morales/Schmal, "The Dominguez Family, a Mexican-American Journey"
Dr. José Angel Gutiérrez,
  "A Chicano Manual on How to Handle Gringos"

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
