Angel was born in Arizona and is part of the in-crowd. She likes clubbing, dancing, and going to car shows. Betzayra is from Mexico City and, despite polio-related disabilities, is the confident group leader of the Mexican girls. Arturo is also from Mexico City; he dresses more fashionably than most other boys and is taunted by the Chicanos. Evelyn was born in Arizona, but her mother was from Mexico and she hangs out with Mexican kids because she thinks theyÕre nicer than Chicanos. How these and some two dozen other young Latinas and Latinos interact forms the basis of a penetrating new study of identity formation among Mexican-origin border youths, taking readers directly into their world to reveal the labyrinth they navigate to shape their identities. For Latina/o adolescents who already find life challenging, the borderland is a place that presents continual affirmations of and contradictions about identityÑquestions of who is more Mexican than American or vice versa. This book analyzes the construction of Mexicana/o and Chicana/o identities through a four-year ethnographic study in a representative American high school. It reveals how identity politics impacts young peopleÕs forms of communication and the cultural spaces they occupy in the school setting. By showing how identities are created and directly influenced by the complexities of geopolitics and sociocultural influences, it stresses the largely unexplored divisions among youths whose identities are located along a wide continuum of ÒMexicanness.Ó Through in-depth interviews and focus groups with both Mexicana/o and Chicana/o students, Cynthia Bejarano explores such topics as the creation of distinct styles that reinforce differences between the two groups; the use of language to further distinguish themselves from one another; and social stratification perpetuated by internal colonialism and the ÒOtheringÓ process. These and other issues are shown to complicate how Latinas/os ethnically identify as Mexicanas/os or Chicanas/os and help explain how they get to this point. In contrast to research that views identity as a reflection of immigration or educational experiences, this study embraces border theory to frame the complex and conflicted relations of adolescents as a result of their identity-making processes. This intimate glimpse into their lives provides valuable information about the diversity among youths and their constant efforts to create, define, and shape their identities according to cultural and social structures.

Thomas Chandler is a criminal attorney and independent Harley rider; Earle Hastings is an outlaw biker, Harley mechanic, and president of the Vermont chapter of the Skuldmen Motorcycle Club, one of the most notorious outlaw 1%er motorcycle clubs in North America. Despite being from different worlds, the two men are the best of friends. While test riding the attorney's Harley, Earle overhears a conversation between three men of Eastern European descent, discussing a bombing they are planning. When the horror the world comes to know as the Boston Marathon Bombing occurs, Earle makes a connection to the event that shakes him to the core. After Earle is hunted down and shot by one of the terrorists, Thomas goes on a quest for revenge with guidance from two federal law enforcement agents. Enlisting several chapters of Skuldmen in New England to assist him in locating the third Boston bomber, the lawyer is conflicted as he straddles a fine line between the two worlds he lives in, and the choices he must make when it comes to moral justice, or biker justice.
