About the Book "La Voz De M.A.Y.O: TATA RAMBO is based on the oral history of Ramon Jaurigue, an orphan and WWII veteran who co-founded the Mexican, American, Yaqui, and Others (M.A.Y.O.) organization, which successfully lobbied the Tucson City Council to improve living and working conditions for members of the Pascua Yaqui tribe. Thanks to this period of activism, the Yaquis were federally recognized as one of the remaining Native American tribes. Meanwhile Ramon's home life suffered as his focus was pulled from family to wider community, and from domesticity to the adrenaline of the campaign. "--Provided by publisher. Book Synopsis La Voz De M.A.Y.O: TATA RAMBO is based on the oral history of Ramon Jaurigue, an orphan and WWII veteran who co-founded the Mexican, American, Yaqui, and Others (M.A.Y.O.) organization, which successfully lobbied the Tucson City Council to improve living and working conditions for members of the Pascua Yaqui tribe. Thanks to this period of activism, the Yaquis were federally recognized as one of the remaining Native American tribes. Meanwhile Ramon's home life suffered as his focus was pulled from family to wider community, and from domesticity to the adrenaline of the campaign. A resonant, neglected slice of American history is told for the first time with art by J. GONZO, letter art by BERNARDO BRICE, edited by CLAIRE NAPIER, and LA VOZ DE M.A.Y.O boasts a script by HENRY BARAJAS the great-grandson of Ramon Jaurigue, a.k.a. Tata Rambo. Review Quotes Barajas' heartfelt paean shows the value of shining a light on lesser known fighters for social justice. -Booklist In La Voz De M.A.Y.O: TATA RAMBO Gonzo's trademark alert, vibrant and kinetic visual storytelling skills powerfully place us in Ramon's consciousness and world. --Frederick Luis Aldama, Latinx Superheroes, Tales From la Vida: A Latinx Comics Anthology "Henry Barajas' powerful true story blends perfectly with J. Gonzo's stunning art and electric colors making La Voz De M.A.Y.O. TATA Rambo a powerful and compelling graphic biography." --Terence Dollard, host of PBS' Comic Culture "Unlike Marvel superheroes fighting villains, Barajas wants this comic book series to be more about documenting Latino and Arizona history--which he feels has its own superpower." --NPR's KJZZ Phoenix, Arizona "Barajas' 'Tata Rambo' shows us via his story that family is truly what gives Latinx superpower." --Edgardo Miranda-Rodriguez, La Borinqueña, Ricanstruction: Reminiscing & Rebuilding Puerto Rico
