Juego Sin Fronteras – (Spanish)
$13.99
Paul Cuadros nos brinda una conmovedora historia de vida en la que laesperanza y la superacion trascienden el campo de juego Por mas de diez anos, la comunidad rural de Siler City, Carolina del Norte, ha estado en la primera linea de inmigracion, tomando trabajadores de America Latina asi como de enclaves latinos de todo los Estados Unidos. Cuando el periodista Paul Cuadros se mudo al. Sur para estudiar el impacto del crecimiento de la comunidad latina, se encontro con un choque de culturas volatil entre los residentes de Siler City y los nuevos miembros de la comunidad; un choque que al final se transformo en una manifestacion anti-inmigratoria, con la participacion del ex miembro del Ku Klux Klan, David Duke. La amarga lucha le infundio un nuevo proposito a Cuadros: demostrarle al numero creciente de juventud latina que podian esperar mas de la vida que el trabajo manual en las plantas avicolas locales. El futbol seria la llave para ayudar a que estos muchachos encuentren el lugar que se merecen en el mundo. Un juego sin fronteras es el relato inolvidable de Paul Cuadros sobre sus tres temporadas como entrenador de los Jets en Jordan-Matthews High School; un equipo de futbol conformado por jovenes latinos subestimados, en una comunidad acostumbrada al futbol americano, que vencio prejuicios, pobreza y contrariedades para consagrarse campeones.
