The first three contributions draw attention to how the tools of literary analysis and inquiry add new perspectives to our understanding of the social realities framing the lives of people of color. The remain­ ing articles using both quantitative and qualitative research methods similarly inform the complex life experiences of peo­ ple of color. In common these seemingly disparate sets of arti­ cles provide sharp and in a couple of instances challenging commentaries on life and living on the margin and the wider social spaces that are circumscribed by color lines. The first article, "From Chinatown to Gunga Din Highway," by E. San Juan, Jr., urges a careful reading of Frank Chin's latest novel. Its messages, according to San Juan, add insight to the role of literary texts in providing both a description of the chal­ lenges facing Chinese Americans and the prescriptions for addressing these within the context of a the U.S. racial polity. Fatima Mujcinovic' s article "In Search of Bernabe: Politicized Womanhood," discusses the dehumanizing effects that war and its associated violence have on the body, mind, and spirit. The piece also points out how new forms of resistance and efforts to reestablish one's humanity can result from personal trials and tribulations. Gerald Gem's "The Athlete as Trickster" brings our attention to how the trickster trope can be used as an analytical tool for understanding how athletes, especially people of color, have responded to the challenges of the color line. "Becoming an American," Kou Yang's article, chronicles the Ethnic Studies Review Volume 24 social and cultural experiences of Hmong refugees coming to the United States the last twenty-five years. Ya ng identifies and analyzes the uniqueness of the Hmong refugee experi­ ence when compared to the immigrant experiences of other Asian groups coming to the United States. Edward Codina, Zenong Yin, et ai, in their article, "Ethnic Identity, Risk, and Protective Factors Related to Substance Use and Academic Achievement Among Mexican American Students," inform us through the use of quantitative research methods of the relationships between ethnic identity, risk, and protective factors and academic achievement. Cynthia Willis Esqueda and Rosemary Esseks explore the extent to which visual stumuli, e.g., race and occupation, are used by European American college students to assign ingroup and outgroup membership based on race of a fictional character. Their contribution, "Saliency of Category Information in Person Perception for Ingroup and Outgroup Members," is a research report of their findings. Ashton Welch in the article, "Ethnicity and the Jury System," examines how aspects of the jurysele c­ tion system disadvantage ethnic and linguistic groups and the prospects for judicial relief. In the final article in this volume, "Using African American Perspectives to Promote a More Inclusive Understanding of Human Communication Theory," Jim Schnell, relates how he has expanded the content of his courses in communications studies to include works by and about African Americans. Schnell argues that this inclusive approach benefits the student and the instructor and has implications for the inclusion of con­ tent addressing the cultural experiences of other groups. We hope you will find this volume in the best traditions of seri­ ous scholarly commentary: provocative, stimulating, and informative. Otis L.

  • American Book Awards 2004
    BEFORE COLUMBUS FOUNDATION PRESENTS THE AMERICAN BOOK AWARDS 2004 America was intended to be a place where freedom from discrimination was the means by which equality was achieved. Today, American culture THE is the most diverse ever on the face of this earth. Recognizing literary excel- lence demands a panoramic perspective. A narrow view strictly to the mainstream ignores all the tributaries that feed it. American literature is AMERICAN not one tradition but all traditions. From those who have been here for thousands of years to the most recent immigrants, we are all contributing to American culture. We are all being translated into a new language. BOOK Everyone should know by now that Columbus did not “discover” America. Rather, we are all still discovering America—and we must continue to do AWARDS so. The Before Columbus Foundation was founded in 1976 as a nonprofit educational and service organization dedicated to the promotion and dissemination of contemporary American multicultural literature. The goals of BCF are to provide recognition and a wider audience for the wealth of cultural and ethnic diversity that constitutes American writing. BCF has always employed the term “multicultural” not as a description of an aspect of American literature, but as a definition of all American litera- ture. BCF believes that the ingredients of America’s so-called “melting pot” are not only distinct, but integral to the unique constitution of American Culture—the whole comprises the parts. In 1978, the Board of Directors of BCF (authors, editors, and publishers representing the multicultural diversity of American Literature) decided that one of its programs should be a book award that would, for the first time, respect and honor excellence in American literature without restric- tion or bias with regard to race, sex, creed, cultural origin, size of press or ad budget, or even genre.
