In 1995, the Latino and American music industry lost an icon to what has become known as one of the most tragic deaths in the music industry. Selena Perez-Quintanilla, only 23 years old at the time of her murder, was known as the "Queen of Tejano.” Despite her short lifespan, Selena achieved what few people had ever achieved before her – that is a successful crossover. It should be made clear from the start that the term ‘crossover’ does not refer to her entrance into the mainstream American music industry but rather her entrance and success into the Latino music industry. Too often this side of Selena’s success story is ignored and the focus is instead placed on her ‘crossover’ into the American market. Such was the case in the film Selena

I think it was the responsibility of all of the educators that came into contact with Juanita to teach her. It does not matter if they were considered a general educator or a special educator, I believe they both could have taught her something.
