 | White Bread Competition by Jo Ann Yolanda Hernandez
The Picturesque City of San Antonio, Texas with its rich Mexican-American culture provides the ideal backdrop for the linked stories in White Bread Competition. Luz, a young Latina, will represent her state in the upcoming national spelling bee. Her participation in the contest signifies a substantial milestone for her community's sense of pride and achievement. But her success also triggers a variety of other emotions: Luz's younger sister, Justina, struggles to understand her mixed feelings towards her older sister's accomplishment; Luz's grandmother fears her granddaughter's ambition while another generation of Latinas pins its hopes on her; and the Anglo students and parents must come to terms with the increasing visibility of the Latino community. When together with the vivid metaphor of making tortillas, stories such as Kneading Attitude and Mixing Ingredients explore deep and consequential themes in this charming and hopeful collection. White Bread Competition won Second Place for Best Collection of Short Stories in the 1996 Chicano/Latino Literary Contest at the University of California, Irvine. AUTHOR: Jo Ann Yolanda Hernandez
