The Orator

Latino Political Fiction - This is a story of two Chicanos growing up in Texas and their cruel and brutal childhood, working in the streets as shoeshine boys and in the fields picking cotton. The story takes you into the adolescent life of these two boys and their sexual encounters and how they viewed these experiences. It also takes you into the underworld of the drug business and prison life. Out of the dark and dismal halls of prison emerges The Orator. The Orator exposes the lies of the psychological warfare that has been waged on the people and the unjust laws that have many living in guilt. The Orator counters these false precepts and replaces them with truth. The language used in this story is not meant to be profane or vulgar, it is just the language of the Barrio and Prison.
