Untold Stories represents a significant contribution to those interested in the role of Christian higher education and the often-unheard stories of Latinx leaders more broadly. Not only does it provide an honest analysis of the challenges of undoing structural racism and inequities in these institutions, but it also introduces the reader to the lived experiences of five Latinx leaders and their commitments and challenges in addressing change. --Daryl G. Smith, Claremont Graduate University, Professor Emerita In Untold Stories, Rios uncovers the structural inequalities and racial bias that hinder the diversification of many Christian colleges and universities. Drawing upon rigorous social-scientific methods and critical-race storytelling, Rios's study is the first of its kind to faithfully, and honestly, share the stories of Latinx administrators in Christian higher education. --Robert Chao Romero, author of Brown Church: Five Centuries of Latina/o Social Justice, Theology, and Identity Leadership, faith-based higher-education institutions, and Latinx perspectives receive an insightful examination by Rios. He acknowledges the challenges and opportunities facing Latinx education leaders. --Laila E. Denoya, Independent Higher Education Consultant, Fulbright Scholar If you have time to read one book on diversity, inclusion, and equity this year, you will want to prioritize Untold Stories. . . . If we want to see CCCU institutions become more like what John describes as the community of the gospel constituted by those from every nation, tribe, people, and language, we will need to grapple ever more seriously with the witnesses of our brothers and sisters of color. --Amos Yong, Dean, Fuller Theological Seminary
