SUMMARY:

Judith Ortiz Cofer was born in Hormigueros, a small town in Puerto Rico. When she was a young child her father’s military career took the family to Paterson, New Jersey, and much of her childhood was spent traveling back and forth between Puerto Rico and the U.S. mainland. At 15, her family moved again, this time to Augusta, Georgia, where she eventually earned a BA in English from Augusta College. She later earned an MA in English from Florida Atlantic University and did graduate work at Oxford University.

She fights for equality and against prejudice and stereotypes in this piece.

This 10th - 12th grade canonized work allows students a chance to experience what happens when we educate and fight prejudice and stereotypes.
