La autora propone que es hora de acabar con nuestra cultura del miedo, que deberíamos seguir el ejemplo de la Gran Generación (Greatest Generation) que se trasladó hacia y desde otros países y levantó economías, exportando paz y prosperidad por el mundo. Además, la autora sugiere que deberíamos invertir en nuestra familia americana –un árbol genealógico que tiene raíces y ramas que se extienden desde Norteamérica hasta Sudamérica. Es hora de reunirnos en una cocina metafórica, compartir recursos y trabajo para cocinar juntos un plato sagrado, los tamales, del mismo modo en que lo han hecho las familias extensas de las Américas desde hace 10.000 años.

Margaret Donnelly presenta su quinto libro en el que disminuye las culpas de todos los responsables del «descompuesto» sistema migratorio de los Estados Unidos de América. En cada uno de sus libros ha tratado muchos temas históricos y humanitarios, y en Trump, tamales y la familia americana defiende la unidad de nuestra familia americana continental. En reconocimiento a su labor comunitaria con los pueblos indígenas de las Américas, fue nominada, en 2004, para el premio de la Fundación Right Livelihood de Suecia, conocido como el premio Nobel de la Paz alternativo. En 2007, recibió el Premio al Servicio Comunitario de la Liga de Ciudadanos Latinoamericanos (LULAC) de los Estados Unidos. Su segunda novela, El canto de los gallos de oro, recibió una Mención Honorífica como Mejor Novela Histórica en 2007 en el Premio International del Libro Latino, en la Book Expo de Nueva York. Es conferenciante y ha sido entrevistada recientemente por distintas cadenas de televisión como Milenio o el canal de la Cámara de Representantes de México en Ciudad de México. Margaret Donnelly obtuvo el Doctorado en Jurisprudencia en 1976 y la Licenciatura en Estudios Latinoamericanos, en la Universidad de Texas, en Austin en 1971. Debido a su prestigio como líder en servicios a la comunidad, fue nombrada miembro de la Ethics Advisory Comission de la ciudad de Dallas a la que perteneció de 2002 a 2006. Durante años escribió la columna “Lo último sobre inmigración” en La Estrella/The Fort Worth Star Telegram, en la que informó a la comunidad del norte de Texas de las novedades relativas a las leyes migratorias en Estados Unidos. Su obra literaria consta de cinco novelas históricas sobre temas de importancia para las Américas. En su cuarta novela, El corazón de Bolívar, se basa la premiada película del mismo título sobre el tráfico de personas.

From the beginning, and throughout the process of publishing my first book, I felt that I was in the hands of a pro. Dana always took the time to answer my questions in detail and swiftly, and if she didn't have 100% confidence, she researched the question and got back to me. I was very pleased with her and I am also thankful that I was paired with her as an Author Rep.

The one-on-one with Lisa was great. Especially the phone call picking out styles, font, cover template etc. She even got a vote on the color. I so wanted to have my daughter's painting as the art work on the cover and she gave me a way to do that. Her guidance helped turn my dream into a reality and sometimes it is still hard to believe until I look at my book. Thank you.
