    Hotel Yorba’s Next Chapter Is Still Unwritten — And Detroiters Want a Say

    A long-vacant Detroit YMCA Has New Ownership With a Plan to Restore It

    A diverse group of approximately twelve people celebrate inside a Detroit public transit bus (numbered 2527). Two women are prominently featured in the foreground—one wearing a black and white plaid blazer on the left, the other in a black blazer with glasses on the right—both smiling and gesturing. Additional passengers stand and sit throughout the bus behind them, several wearing blue clothing. Yellow handrails and support poles frame the scene, with red banners visible that read "Believe Your Story." Windows show the street outside, and the interior has blue-gray seating.

More than 3,700 authors and publishers have been honored at the International Latino Book Awards in a variety of categories as the International Latino Book Awards continue the effort to promote and uplift Latinos voices in literature. The Award Winning Author seal is now recognized as a mark of quality in publishing, and the awards continue to grow every year in number of entries and winners, as well as in recognition. This year we are celebrating 25 years recognizing books by and about Latinos.

Eleven categories have been named for past winners who have forged the path for writers in the Latino community, including the best-selling Chilean author Isabel Allende, the first Latino U.S. Poet Laureate Juan Felipe Herrera, the late great padrino of Chicano literature Rodolfo Anaya, and the community activist Dolores Huerta.

Participating authors are invited to represent Latino writers in educational and community events around the USA, such as the American Library Association conference, CABE, UnidosUS, our Latino Book & Family Festivals, and the International Book Fair in Guadalajara, Mexico. The International Latino Book Awards also selects four Rising Star Honorees—one from each of the main categories: Children’s, Nonfiction, Fiction, and Poetry books. All Gold Medal winners are considered for this award that includes a check for $1,000, distribution of an article about their book, and press releases focusing on the four Rising Stars as the next generation of ‘must-read’ authors.

Ceremonia de Reconocimientos del Libro Latino celebra 25 Años

Gane reconocimiento y ayude a promover a los escritores latinos al participar con sus libros.

Los International Latino Book Awards han honrado a más de 3,700 autores y editoriales en una variedad de categorías. Los reconocimientos Internacionales del Libro Latino continúan con el esfuerzo de promover y elevar las voces latinas en la literatura. El sello de autor galardonado se reconoce como una marca de calidad en las publicaciones, y los reconocimientos continúan creciendo cada año en número de participantes y ganadores, así como en reconocimiento. Este año estamos celebrando 25 años de reconocer libros escritos por y sobre latinos.

Once de nuestras categorías llevan su nombre en honor a ganadores anteriores que han forjado el camino para escritores en la comunidad latina, entre los cuales está la autora chilena con mayor ventas Isabel Allende, el primer Poet Laureate latino de Estados Unidos Juan Felipe Herrera, el difunto gran padrino de la literatura chicana Rodolfo Anaya, y la activista comunitaria Dolores Huerta.

Los autores participantes están invitados a representar a escritores latinos en actividades educativas y comunitarias, como la conferencia de la Asociación Americana de Bibliotecas (ALA), CABE, UnidosUS, nuestros Festivales Latinos del Libro y la Familia y la Feria Internacional del Libro en Guadalajara, México. Los International Latino Book Awards también seleccionan a cuatro autores en ascenso, o Rising Stars. Hay uno en cada una de las categorías principales: libros infantiles, de no ficción, de ficción y de poesía. Todos los ganadores de la Medalla de Oro son considerados para este premio que incluye un cheque por $1,000, la distribución de un artículo sobre su libro y comunicados de prensa enfocados en los cuatro autores en ascenso como la próxima generación de autores con libros que ‘no pueden dejarse de leer’.

DETROIT, MI - JUNE 14, 2025: Approximately 4,000 Metro Detroit activists hold a No Kings Day rally at Clark Park in Detroit, Michigan on June 14, 2025 before marching through the streets of Southwest Detroit, home to the largest Hispanic population in the city, to show support for the immigrant community, denounce the rise of authoritarianism and the ongoing ICE raids, and to show solidarity with Los Angeles after President Trump deployed the National Guard and U.S. Marines to L.A. in response to large scale protests.
