ANDO SANGRANDO (I Am Bleeding): A Study of Mexican American - Police Conflict
Fair Lawn, New Jersey: R.E. Burdick, Inc., 1972. Hardcover. Second printing. "This unique book about the Mexican-American 'barrio' depicts the relationship between the bario and the traditional law-enforcement system (police, courts, and corrections). The relationship is explored in descending order of detail with regard to the East Los Angeles area, the State of California, and the nation. The book is of inestimable value to social work students and practitioners working with residents of the barrio...[and] fills a great need of the Mexican-American barrio in that it tells the story from the point of view of barrio residents, who believe that the problem lies in the dominant society" (Social Service Review, Volume 47, Number 4).
