La lengua de los hispanos unidos de América. Crónica de resistencia

Summary:

La lengua de los hispanos unidos de América is a chronicle of the Spanish language and the Hispanic community in the United States in the first decades of the 21^st century. Beyond the play on words, the title refers to "united Hispanics" to focus attention on the Hispanic or Latino community as a whole, its resilient nature, and its hallmarks. The iron law of the disappearance of immigrant languages ​​within three generations remains unfulfilled in the United States, because here Spanish is much more than a language of immigrants. This "chronicle" presents various writing registers: newspaper columns, academic articles, blog posts. Its content has been organized by theme: language, coexistence, education, repression, everyday scenes, and profiles of major cities. All of them project the lights and shadows of the Hispanic reality in the United States of America.
