Puerto Ricans in the United States: A Contemporary Portrait

Puerto Ricans in the United States: A Contemporary Portrait
- Used Book in Good Condition
Though their presence in the United States is long standing, knowledge about Puerto Ricans their culture, history, socioeconomic status, and contributions has been decidedly inadequate. Edna Acosta-BelÃ©n and Carlos Santiago change this status quo, presenting a nuanced portrait of both the community today and the trajectory of its development.

The authors move deftly from Puerto Rico s colonial experience, through a series of waves of migration, to the emergence of the commuter patterns seen today. Not least, they draw on extensive data to dispel widespread myths and stereotypes. Their work is a long overdue corrective to conventional wisdom about the role of the Puerto Rican community within US society.
