During her visit to the Hispanicize 2014 conference in Miami, Florida, Alonso Castillo had the opportunity to interview Yoani Sanchez, who talked about her role as the digital and social voice of Cuba – a country that, for over 50 years, has suffered from oppression through censorship of media and lack of freedom of the press. She comments on the country’s long-standing dictatorship along with her experiences and her point of view regarding whether social media will ever evolve in the struggling country and what its role may be in the future.

Sanchez has achieved international fame and received multiple awards for her critical portrayal of day-to-day life in a communist country like Cuba. Her writings have been published by renowned media sources such as the Huffington Post, which have applauded her for her dedication to opening communication channels, despite the technological obstacles and governmental threats that prevent the freedom of speech of the Cuban people.

“Vme Entrevista: Yoani Sanchez” forms part of a yearlong series of interviews with influential leaders who are doing their part to make the world a better place. Other notable personalities featured previously in the series include award-winning actress, Rita Moreno and former President of Poland and Nobel Peace Prize recipient, Lech Walesa.

Chevrolet to Host 11 Children From Around the World at Old Trafford for Special Experience with Manchester United


DETROIT, Aug. 12, 2014 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ —

  • Inspiring children will serve as mascots for Manchester United’s first Premier League match of the season, attend club’s soccer school, receive tour of Old Trafford and meet members of first team and club legends
  • Boys and girls are from Brazil, China, South Africa, South Korea and the United States, among others

Chevrolet today announced it is hosting 11 children from around the world in Manchester, England this week to serve as mascots for Manchester United’s Premier League season opener on Saturday at Old Trafford.

The children – ages 10-13 from Brazil, China, South Africa, South Korea and the United States, among others – are visiting as part of Chevrolet’s “What Do You #PlayFor?” campaign to bring football fans closer to the sport and spread the power of play around the world.

“Enabling these children to live the dream of being on the Old Trafford pitch with the Manchester United first team is an unprecedented and dramatic way to celebrate our global partnership with the club and our mission to spread the power of play around the world,” said Tim Mahoney, chief marketing officer, Global Chevrolet. “Watching them walk onto the pitch is sure to inspire football fans everywhere, and certainly will be special for their families and friends, as well as everyone at Chevrolet and Manchester United.”

In addition to serving as mascots, the children will attend Manchester United’s famed Soccer School, meet club legends, receive a tour of the Club’s iconic Old Trafford stadium, and more.

“We are delighted to welcome such a diverse lineup of mascots to Old Trafford,” said Richard Arnold, Manchester United Group managing director. “This is the first time our mascots have travelled from such a wide range of countries and the occasion truly demonstrates the Club’s global fan base and worldwide appeal. It is rare for 11 mascots to lead out the team, and their inclusion shows both Manchester United and Chevrolet’s desire to mark this very special day.”

The children were selected to serve as mascots due in part to their love of the game, determination to overcome a variety of challenges, and use play to realize anything is possible. The opportunity to be a mascot is part of Chevrolet’s “What Do You #PlayFor?” campaign to bring football fans closer to the sport and spread the power of play around the world. Each child’s story is featured at www.ChevroletFC.com.

Since announcing its partnership with Manchester United in 2012, Chevrolet has used football to spread the power of play worldwide, including donating nearly 1 million nearly indestructible balls from the One World Futbol Project for use by more than 26 million youth in 60-plus countries in Africa, Asia, and the Americas.

Chevrolet also recently revitalized a pitch in Bandung, Indonesia, on behalf of a local organization that uses soccer to increase the quality of life for people living with HIV and drug addiction. Chevrolet also donated a pop up pitch and pickup truck and trailer to help transform gang-ridden areas of Chicago into places where children can play and learn valuable life skills.

To celebrate its new, seven-year Manchester United shirt sponsorship, Chevrolet is inviting fans around the world to upload photos of themselves wearing a digital version of the new shirt at www.ChevroletFC.com. Chevrolet also recently released a video on www.ChevroletFC.com featuring Manchester United players, legends and fans paying homage to the history of the club’s shirts. The video has attracted more than 10 million views.

PALS Marketplace Announces The Release Of PALS espanol


CHARLOTTESVILLE, Virginia, Aug. 12, 2014 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — PALS Marketplace, a division of CaseNEX, LLC proudly announces the release of PALS espanol. The PALS espanol assessments measure the fundamental components of Spanish literacy development for kindergarten and grades 1-3. Funded by the United States Department of Education’s Institute for Education Sciences (IES) grant, PALS espanol was developed through rigorous research led by Dr. Karen Ford, a bilingual reading researcher at the University of Virginia, alongside PALS original author, Dr. Marcia Invernizzi, UVA’s Henderson Professor of Education.

Logo – http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20140218/NY66411LOGO

To ensure fidelity to the Spanish language, an advisory board consisting of experts in bilingual literacy and native Spanish speakers from a variety of Spanish-speaking countries conducted thorough reviews of all tasks and items. Both assessments have been field-tested with thousands of students across the United States and show strong technical adequacy. 

PALS espanol will identify students’ literacy strengths in their native Spanish language in order to accelerate English reading and spelling development. Designed to reflect the stages of Spanish literacy development, PALS espanol will distinguish between students who simply have English oral language delays and those who have actual reading difficulties. Early assessment with PALS espanol helps teachers:

  • Identify students’ literacy strengths in their native Spanish.
  • Individualize instruction to accelerate reading development in both English and Spanish.
  • Identify students with reading difficulties without waiting until they are ready to be assessed in English.

Teachers can use PALS espanol with confidence to track their students’ progress in developing essential literacy skills. PALS espanol will be available on August 25, 2014. 

ABOUT PALS: PALS was developed by Marcia Invernizzi, Ph.D., and colleagues at the University of Virginia’s Curry School of Education in response to the Commonwealth of Virginia’s Early Intervention Reading Initiative (EIRI). PALS is utilized for early identification and intervention in all 50 states, as well as many foreign countries. PALS has remained the universal screening tool for Virginia public schools for over 15 years and has recently been mandated by the state of Wisconsin as the state’s universal screening tool for Kindergarten through second grade students.
