Requirements: .ePUB reader, 3.1 MB
Overview: In February 1962, three years into Fidel Castro’s rule of their Cuban homeland, the González family―an auto mechanic, his wife, and two young children―landed in Miami with a few personal possessions and two bottles of Cuban rum. As his parents struggled to find work, eleven-year-old Gerardo struggled to fit in at school, where a teacher intimidated him and school authorities placed him on a vocational track. Inspired by a close friend, Gerardo decided to go to college. He not only graduated but, with hard work and determination, placed himself on a path through higher education that brought him to a deanship at the Indiana University School of Education.
