In celebration of our heritage today, I thought I’d recommend one of my favorite books. In Drink Cultura, author José Antonio Burciagar writes a series of short essays about growing up Mexican American in Texas and his experiences in California. He shares stories of the Chicano Movement and lets readers know how it still affects lives today. His writing style is humorous, insightful, and easy to read.

La Bloga has a great review of the book. And Nopal Apparel sells Drink Cultura t-shirts.
