Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. "No estoy roto es un libro para sobrevivientes y para aquellos que tienen en sus vidas a alguien que esperan que se salve." --Sandra Cisneros "Esta memoria es el recuento de una vida llena de experiencias desgarradoras, pero también renovada gracias a una profunda fortaleza interior y a una determinación imparable por superarse". --Darren Walker, Presidente de la Fundación Ford Nacido en San Diego, en 1970, e hijo de inmigrantes mexicanos indígenas y de clase trabajadora, la infancia de Jesse León fue violentamente interrumpida. Un peligroso encuentro en una tienda local lo dejó guardando un oscuro y terrible secreto. En esta valiente memoria, León arroja luz sobre una juventud devastada por el abuso sexual, las drogas y la vida en la calle. Su paso por Narcóticos Anónimos, su lucha por aceptar su orientación sexual y por entender que era un ser humano valioso a pesar de sus terribles experiencias, dieron resultado: León no solo se graduó en Harvard, sino que se convirtió en un servidor para la comunidad. En el camino a encontrar su voluntad de vivir, la ayuda de su familia, sus amigos y guías, fue un apoyo invaluable. No estoy roto es una conmovedora historia de resiliencia, un poderoso e inspirador retrato de la fuerza y el espíritu indomables de un joven determinado a sobrevivir. "No estoy roto es un poderoso recuerdo de que el espíritu humano puede ser realmente resistente cuando se alimenta de fe, amor y esperanza". -Pedro Noguera, Decano de la Escuela Rossier de Educación ENGLISH DESCRIPTION In this unflinching and inspiring memoir, Jesse Leon tells an extraordinary story of resilience and survival. He shines a light on his childhood, one devastated by sex trafficking, street life, and substance abuse. Born to indigenous working-class Mexican immigrants in San Diego in the 1970s, Jesse Leon's childhood was violently ruptured. A dangerous and harrowing encounter at a local gift shop when he was eleven years old left Jesse with a deadly secret. Hurt, alone, and scared for his life, Jesse numbed his pain by losing himself in the hyper-masculine culture of the streets and wherever else he could find it --in alcohol, drugs, and prostitution. Overlooked by state-sanctioned institutions and systems intended to help victims of abuse, neglected like many other low-income Latinos, Jesse spiraled into cycles of suicide and substance abuse. I'm Not Broken is the heartbreaking and remarkable story of the journey Jesse takes to win back his life, leading him to the steps of Harvard University. From being the lone young person of color in Narcotics Anonymous meetings to coming to terms with his own sexual identity, to becoming an engaged mentor for incarcerated youth, Jesse finds the will to live with the love and support of his family, friends, and mentors. Recounting the extraordinary circumstances of his life, Jesse offers a powerful, raw testament to the possibilities of self-transformation and self-acceptance. Unforgettable,I'm Not Broken is an inspirational portrait of one young man's indomitable strength and spirit to survive--against all possible odds.…
