Includes bibliographical references.Mamiachi y yo es un álbum ilustrado, escrito por Jolene y Dakota Gutiérrez e ilustrado por Mirelle Ortega, ganadora de un Pura Belpré Honor. ¡Hoy es el gran día! Rosa subirá al escenario junto a su mamá y tocará con su popular banda de mariachis. Pero mientras abrochan las brillantes botonaduras y se atan los moños de sus trajes charros, Rosa comienza a preocuparse. ¿Y si al público no le gusta su música? ¿Está realmente lista para subirse al escenario? Con su "mamiachi" y sus madrinas a su lado, el miedo escénico de Rosa se desvanece al compás de trompetas, guitarras y violines. El poder de la hermandad, la comunidad y la música, centran el cálido texto escrito por la dupla Jolene y Dakota Gutiérrez. Madre e hijo, junto a la ilustradora Mirelle Ortega, ofrecen una perspectiva única del mundo de los mariachis, tradicionalmente dominado por hombres. El material complementario incluye información sobre la historia de esta tradición mexicana y sobre el surgimiento de mariachis femeninos, además de un glosario, una bibliografía, lecturas adicionales y un vistazo divertido y detallado del traje charro.Mamiachi & Me is a lyrical and empowering picture book written by Jolene and Dakota Gutiérrez and illustrated by Mirelle Ortega, winner of a Pura Belpré Illustrator Honor, about what it means to be a mariachi in an all female band. Today's the day! Rosa will take the stage next to her mami and play along with her popular mariachi band. But as they fasten the shiny botonaduras and tie the moños on their charra suits, Rosa begins to worry. What if the audience doesn't like her? Is she ready to perform? With her "mamiachi" and madrinas by her side, Rosa's stage fright is soothed away by the sound of trumpets, guitars, and violins. Centering on the power of sisterhood, community, and music, the warm and lively text by mother-and-son writing duo Jolene and Dakota Gutiérrez--joined by Mirelle Ortega's beautiful illustrations--provides a unique perspective to the male-dominated world of mariachi. Back matter includes additional context on the history of the beloved Mexican tradition and the rise of all-female mariachi groups, as well as a glossary, a bibliography, further reading, and a fun, detailed look at a mariachi's signature charro suit!

Osceola. by Petzold, Konrad,film director.; Mitic, Gojko,actor.; Schulze, Horst,actor.; Darie, Iurie,actor.; Ugowski, Karin,actor.; DEFA Film Library (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;

Gojko Mitic, Horst Schulze, Iurie Darie, Karin UgowskiOriginally produced by DEFA Film Library in 1971.Florida, 1830. Of all eastern Indigenous nations, only the Seminoles have resisted being moved to reservations. Having retreated to Florida, they live a rich horticultural life, while white plantation owners, angry at the increasing numbers of Black slaves fleeing to Seminole protection, want to take their land. Plantation owner Raynes, in particular, has convinced the US military to wipe out the Seminoles. His rival Moore, a sawmill owner from the North who has a Seminole wife, is against slavery on moral grounds and considers it unprofitable. Seminole leader Osceola sees the coming danger and despite his efforts, he cannot prevent the war that breaks out in 1835.Since the 1960s, the East German DEFA Studio for Feature Films adapted the Western film genre for socialism, while also attempting a gesture of solidarity with the Indigenous nations of North America. Films such as this one, include the representation of unacceptable practices, cultural appropriation, as well as racist and stereotypical depictions, characterization, language and imagery. The DEFA Film Library’s English-subtitled version makes efforts to address racist language and honor authorship. In the subtitles, terms for Black, Native American and Indigenous peoples that have always been derogatory in English and German are indicated as [n-word] or [i-word].Mode of access: World Wide Web.
