Unwanted and Not Included...is readable...the ideas and stories are written so they can be understood...[and] the book's direction toward indigenous people is helpful. -- Gabriel Estrada, Assistant Professor of American Indian Studies & Chicano Studies, California State University, Long Beach Camacho has shed some light on the trials and tribulations of Mexicans living in America...[and] vividly paints a picture of how the U.S. sees race relations strictly from a black / white paradigm. Much of the material...may not be easy to hear but needs to be addressed. -- Ruben Puente, Santa Monica College Camacho has written these stories from the heart and from everything he has experienced firsthand...These stories describe all of us who have gone through a system that makes us feel as if we don't belong... -- Maricella Carmona, California State University, Los Angeles Unwanted and Not Included is a significant contribution to the small but growing field of Chicano critical thought. The themes he selects for discussion strike a strong cultural independent nerve from students that have been introduced to the usual traditional perception of Chicano cultural life. It's an intellectual, refreshing experience. -- Abel Amaya, Professor, Chicano Studies, California State University, Fullerton
