Historical Note Born in Bakersfield, California on July 18, 1970, and raised in Michoacán, Mexico, he is the son and grandson of migrant farmworkers, both parents now deceased. His extended family migrated back to California in 1980 and returned to Mexico in 1992. González remained alone in the U.S. to complete his education. Details of his troubled childhood in Michoacán and his difficult adolescence as an immigrant in California are the basis for his coming of age memoir Butterfly Boy: Memories of a Chicano Mariposa. During his college years he also performed with various Baile Folklorico and Flamenco dance troupes. He earned a B.A. in Humanities and Social Sciences Interdisciplinary Studies from the University of California, Riverside, and graduate degrees from the University of California, Davis, and Arizona State University in Tempe. His former teachers include the Chicano poets Gary Soto, Francisco X. Alarcón, Lorna Dee Cervantes, Pat Mora and Alberto Ríos, and the African American writers Clarence Major and Jewell Parker Rhodes. In 1997 González enrolled in a PhD program at the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque, but dropped out a year later to join his partner in New York City and to pursue a writing career. The two published their first books only a few months apart in the spring of 1999 and received numerous awards and recognitions for their works. In 2001, González pursued a Finding Aid for the Rigoberto 99 2 Gonzalez Papers 1993-2008 career as an academic, holding distinguished teaching appointments at The New School, the University of Toledo, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and Queens College/City University of New York. González has lived and worked mostly in New York City and currently teaches at the writing program of Rutgers University in Newark, where he is Associate Professor of English. He also holds a part-time appointment with the Vermont College of Fine Arts in Montpelier. The recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship and a National Endowment for the Arts fellowship, the American Book Award from the Before Columbus Foundation, The Poetry Center Book Award from San Francisco State University, and of various international artist residencies including stays in Spain, Brazil, Costa Rica, Scotland and Switzerland, he writes a monthly Chicano/Latino book review column, now entering its seventh year, for the El Paso Times of Texas. He is also contributing editor for 'Poets & Writers,' an executive board member of the National Book Critics Circle, and is on the Advisory Circle of Con Tinta, a collective of Chicano/Latino activist-writers. In 2008 he was named to the position of 2009 Poet-in-Residence by the Board of Trustees of The Frost Place, the farm house of Robert Frost located in New Hampshire. He was also named one of 100 Men and Women Who Made 2008 a Year to Remember by Out Magazine. In 2009, 'My Latino Voice' named him one of the 25 most influential GLBT Latinos in the country. Gonzalez is an award-winning author of poetry, fiction, nonfiction, and bilingual children's books, and self-identifies in his writing as a gay Chicano. He is also contributing editor for Poets & Writers Magazine, an executive board member of the National Book Critics Circle, and is on the Advisory Circle of Con Tinta, a collective of Chicano/Latino activist-writers. Respected for his versatility with literary genres and for his generosity toward writers, González has championed a number of efforts to give visibility to marginalized voices. He curates and hosts 'The Quetzal Quill', a reading series in Manhattan, and has featured a number of poets on The Poetry Foundation blog 'Harriet', and on the National Book Critics Circle blog 'Critical Mass' through the Small Press Spotlight Series.

  • The Progressive Stages of the Black Aesthetic in Literature
    Notes 1. TOTAL LIFE IS WHAT WE WANT: THE PROGRESSIVE STAGES OF THE BLACK AESTHETIC IN LITERATURE 1. This was the problem of nomenclature that had bogged down some of Douglass' thoughts toward the correction of racism. He was tom, as was true of many black leaders, between a violent response to white violence and arrogance, and his own Christian principles. Yet this dissonance did not lead to inaction: cf., the commentary preceding The Life and Times of Frederick Douglass' in Early American Negro Writers, edited by Benjamin Brawley (New York: Dover, 1970). 2. Although I have chosen as the focus of my inquiry Major, Baker, Gayle, and Baraka because of the quantity and quality of their comments, and because of their association with Reed, it is still an arbitrary choice which excludes many other critics who were import­ ant to the formation of the new black aesthetic. Certainly Hoyt Fuller, the former editor of Black World, deserves his place among the leading black aestheticians, as does Larry Neal. An excellent reference for a more full discussion of other personalities in the new black aesthetic is Propaganda and Aesthetics: The Literary Politics of Afro-American Maga­ zines in the Twentieth Century, by Abby A. Johnson and Ronald Mayberry Johnson (Amherst: University of Massachusetts Press, 1979). 3. This method of delivery was one of the mainstays of effective communication for those obsessed with the power of the word in the 1960s: Baraka, Cleaver, Sonia Sanchez, even Jane Fonda. Ntozake Shange would write in 1980 that blacks had so claimed 'the word' that it hardly mattered who spoke or what was said; the listener was immediately comfortable with simply the grace and rhythm of the words issuing forth.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Walt Whitman Quarterly Review by an authorized administrator of Iowa Research Online. For more information, please contact [email protected]. WALT WHITMAN, CLARENCE MAJOR, AND CHANGING THRESHOLDS OF AMERICAN WONDER LINDA FURGERSON SELZER ALTHOUGH WALT WHITMAN never ventured further into the West than his 1879 trip to Colorado, his imagined Western landscapes play a central role in the distinctively American poetic voice that energizes the mul- tiple editions of Leaves of Grass. Contemporary African American poet, novelist, and painter Clarence Major has lived and worked for much of his adult life in the West, so it is not surprising that its material and figurative landscapes are also central to his multiple artistic projects. In addition, Major consciously engages Whitman’s imagined West in his essays and poetry, and his poem set on the coast of Northwestern California, “September Mendocino,” is a direct response to Whitman’s better-known “Song of the Redwood-Tree.” Whitman’s poem, com- posed in the year after his paralytic stroke on January 23, 1873, was first published inHarper’s New Monthly Magazine in 1874.

  • In Literature
    In Literature African Americans in History The first recorded Africans in British North America (including most of the future United States) arrived in 1619 as indentured servants who settled in Jamestown, Virginia. They for many years were similar in legal position to poor English indentures, which traded several years’ labor in exchange for passage to America. Africans could legally raise crops and cattle to purchase their freedom. They raised families, marrying other Africans and sometimes intermarrying with Native Americans or English settlers. By the 1640s and 1650s, several African families owned farms around Jamestown and some became wealthy by colonial standards. 1From colonial times, African-Americans arrived in large numbers as slaves and lived primarily on plantations in the South. In 1790 slave and free blacks together comprised about one-fifth of the U.S. population. 2 In 1863, during the American Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation. The proclamation declared all slaves in states that had seceded from the Union were free. Advancing Union troops enforced the proclamation with Texas being the last state to be emancipated in 1865. While the post-war reconstruction era was initially a time of progress for African Americans, in the late 1890s, Southern states enacted Jim Crow laws to enforce racial segregation and disenfranchisement. Most African Americans followed the Jim Crow laws and assumed a posture of humility and servility to prevent becoming victims of racially motivated violence.

  • Tragic Mulatto': the Intersection of Black and Indian Heritage in Contemporary Literature
    Smith-Black and Indian Heritage TRANSCENDING THE 'TRAGIC MULATTO': THE INTERSECTION OF BLACK AND INDIAN HERITAGE IN CONTEMPORARY LITERATURE Lindsey Claire Smith Minnesota State University The supposed plight of multi-racial persons is wide­ ly depicted in modern American literature, including the works of William Faulkner, whose stories fo llow the lives of multi-racial characters such as Joe Christmas and Sam Fathers, who, reflecting characteristics of "tragic mulatto" figures, search for acceptance in a racially polarized Mississippi society. Yet more con­ temporary literature, including works by Michael Dorris, Leslie Marmon Silko, To ni Morrison, and Clarence Major, reference the historical relationship between African Americans and American Indians, fea­ turing multi-racial characters that more successfully fit the fabric of current American culture than do more "traditional" works such as Faulkner's. While an outdat­ ed black-white binary still lingers in American percep­ tions of race, increasingly, racial identity is now informed by self-identification, community recognition, and acculturation. As a result, black and Indian char­ acters, as well as multi-racial authors, provide varied and insightful glimpses into the complexity of America's racial landscape. The historic connection between African Americans and Native Americans has long been recognized by members of both groups 45 Ethnic Studies Review Volume 26: 1 and has recently attracted greater attention by scholars.
