    Nonfiction: Corridos and Tragedias: I Will No Longer Erase Us, Or Let You Erase Us by Kase Jonstun

    "By the time I was old enough to know, they only spoke in Spanish when they fought or when they swore. Then he would lift his hand and spin his finger around, directing me to dance while the first chords of La Cucaracha sang from his guitar. “La cucaracha y no puedo caminar.” And he always sang the version that included “marijuana que fumar,” and he would get another side glance and laugh from grandma. Growing up, I thought this was the original and only version of the song. I had to look it up years later to learn that it has been around for decades but it’s not the version most grandfathers teach their grandchildren. With this, for my grandpa Cordova, was par for the course on just about everything he taught us. If there was a dirty version of a song or a joke, that’s the one we heard."

    Poetry: Star Spangled Banner by Luna Vallejo

    "The Star-Spangled Banner Is more than just a national anthem, it's the sanctified song millions of immigrants sing under their breath as their brittle backbones bend over strawberry fields slick with dew to convince themselves that America can still see their silhouettes even when their sandpaper skin isn't drenched in the dawn's early light..."
