About the Book

La exploración profundamente informada de una periodista galardonada sobre cómo la raza, la identidad y el trauma político han influido en el incremento de un sentimiento de ultraderecha entre los latinos, y cómo este grupo sería capaz de moldear la política de Estados Unidos.

Históricamente, los demócratas han asumido que pueden contar con el voto latino, pero elecciones recientes han puesto en entredicho esta lealtad. De hecho, a pesar de su vociferante retórica antimigratoria y sus desastrosas políticas fronterizas, Trump ganó un porcentaje mayor del voto latino en 2020 del que obtuvo en 2016. Ahora, la periodista Paola Ramos abre el telón hacia estos votantes, recorriendo el país para descubrir qué los motiva a votar por y apoyar cuestiones que parecen tan contrarias a sus propios intereses.


De costa a costa, desde ciudades hasta pueblos rurales, Desertores le presenta a los lectores candidatos republicanos que difícilmente ganarían, insurrectos del 6 de enero, pastores evangelistas y cruzados en la guerra cultural, con la intención de identificar las influencias en el corazón de este cambio derechista. A través de sus historias, Ramos nos muestra cómo el tribalismo, el tradicionalismo y el trauma político dentro de la comunidad latina se ha convertido en un arma para radicalizar y convertir a los votantes que, así como muchas de contrapartes blancas, tienen miedo de perder su lugar en la sociedad estadounidense.

Conocemos a Mónica de la Cruz, congresista republicana del Valle de Río Grande, quien ganó con una plataforma centrada en terminar "lo que Donald Trump había empezado" e impulsar la Teoría del Gran Reemplazo; David Ortiz, un hombre mexicano que se hace llamar español y se opone a la remoción de la estatua de un conquistador español en Nuevo México; Luis Cabrera, pastor evangelista y promotor de "Volver a Estados Unidos piadoso otra vez"; Anthony Agüero, periodista independiente convertido en vigilante fronterizo, e incontables individuos y comunidades más que conforman la creciente población conservadora latina.

Intercultural y relatado con asiduidad, Desertores resalta cómo uno de los electorados más poderosos e incomprendidos podría llegar a definir el futuro de la política en Estados Unidos.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

An award-winning journalist's deeply reported exploration of how race, identity and political trauma have influenced the rise in far-right sentiment among Latinos, and how this group can shape American politics

Democrats have historically assumed they can rely on the Latino vote, but recent elections have called that loyalty into question. In fact, despite his vociferous anti-immigrant rhetoric and disastrous border policies, Trump won a higher percentage of the Latino vote in 2020 than he did in 2016. Now, journalist Paola Ramos pulls back the curtain on these voters, traveling around the country to uncover what motivates them to vote for and support issues that seem so at odds with their self-interest.

From coast to coast, cities to rural towns, Defectors introduces readers to underdog GOP candidates, January 6th insurrectionists, Evangelical pastors and culture war crusaders, aiming to identify the influences at the heart of this rightward shift. Through their stories, Ramos shows how tribalism, traditionalism, and political trauma within the Latino community has been weaponized to radicalize and convert voters who, like many of their white counterparts, are fearful of losing their place in American society.

We meet Monica de la Cruz, a Republican congresswoman from the Rio Grande Valley who won on a platform centered on finishing "what Donald Trump started" and pushing the Great Replacement Theory; David Ortiz, a Mexican man who refers to himself as a Spaniard and opposed the removal of a statue of a Spanish conquistador in New Mexico; Luis Cabrera, an evangelical pastor pushing to "Make America Godly Again;" Anthony Aguero, an independent journalist turned border vigilante; and countless other individuals and communities that make up the rising conservative Latino population.

Cross-cultural and assiduously reported, Defectors highlights how one of America's most powerful and misunderstood electorates may come to define the future of American politics.
