    Lauro Flores Department of Romance Languages and Literatures University of Washington Seattle, W A 98195 Visible Language XXI 1 (Winter 1987) Lauro Flores, pp.130-152 ©Visible Language, Wayne State University Press, Detroit, MI 48202 The contact and interaction of English and Spanish, of Mexican and Anglo-American cultures, lies at the heart of the Chicano experience in the United States. Accordingly, code-switching has been a salient feature of many Chicano literary works. The simulta­ neous incorporation of both languages into poetry and other artistic forms is sometimes interpreted as an expression of the ambiguity permeating the historical evolution of this people. However, it can also be explained as part of the Chicanos' attempt to achieve cultural definition and autonomy in a con­ flicting reality. 131 II The author gratefully The historical context. acknowledges the support he received from the Institute for Ethnic Studies in the Any brief reference to Chicano poetry is bound to United States, University of refer the uninformed reader almost exclusively to Washington. It made the literary production loosely associated with the possible the completion of Chicano movement - poetry written during the last this and other projects. two decades. Until recently, the general contention, or at least the assumption on the part of many critics and literary historians, was that before the 1960s there was no literature written by people of Mexican descent in the United States. Nothing could be farther from the truth. While it is clear that the Chicano movement came to foment and revitalize the artistic endeavors of Chicanos during the last twenty years, subsequent research has demonstrated that the production of literature is hardly a new activity for this group.

I’m Anne Holmes, the Center’s digital content manager, and you just heard Rob Casper, the head of the Poetry and Literature Center, on the line with former Poet Laureate Juan Felipe Herrera. We’ll get back to that conversation in just a minute, I promise. If this is your first time tuning in, here’s some background: Each week, we pull from our 80 years of archived recordings to listen to celebrated poets reading and discussing their work here at the Library. On this first season, we’re revisiting some of the Poetry and Literature Center’s events from the last five years, and we’ll bring on some special guests to talk about them with us. All of the event recordings you’ll hear this season are available as video webcasts on the Library’s website. On today’s episode, we’re going back to the 2015 Youth Poetry Slam at the National Book Festival. The Youth Poetry Slam event debuted at the Festival just a year earlier, in 2014, as a collaboration between the Library of Congress, the Literature Division of the National Endowment for the Arts, and Split This Rock, a national poetry organization with deep roots here in D.C.

  • 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.

  • Poem in Your Pocket Day
    Poem in Your Pocket Day April 27, 2017 Every April, on Poem in Your Pocket Day, people celebrate by selecting a poem, carrying it with them, and sharing it with others throughout the day at schools, bookstores, libraries, parks, workplaces, and on social media using the hashtag #pocketpoem. Join us in celebrating Poem in Your Pocket Day this year! A Guide to Celebrating Poetry in Schools, Communities & Businesses Poem in Your Pocket Day was initiated in April 2002 by the Office of the Mayor, in partnership with the New York City Departments of Cultural Affairs and Education, as part of the city’s National Poetry Month celebration. The Academy of American Poets, which launched National Poetry Month in 1996, took Poem in Your Pocket Day to all fifty United States in 2008, encouraging individuals across the country to join in and channel their inner bard. Since 2016, the Academy of American Poets and the League of Canadian Poets, the latter of which has organized National Poetry Month in Canada since 1998, have teamed up to extend the reach of Poem in Your Pocket Day across North America. Ideas for Celebrating Poem in Your Pocket Day The beauty of Poem in Your Pocket Day is its simplicity. Individuals and institutions have generated many creative ways to share poems on this special day—from having children create handmade pockets to tuck their favorite poems into, to handing out poems to commuters at transportation hubs, to distributing poem scrolls in hospitals, nursing homes, and local businesses. The ideas are endless but here are a few to get you started.

  • Introduction to Mexican American Literature Fall 2020 Professor
    Introduction to Mexican American Literature Fall 2020 Professor Charles Tatum THURSDAYS from 10 am-12 pm September 17, 24, October 1, 8, 15 Course Description: Of the over 50 million Latinas and Latinos living in the United States today, approximately 35 million are Americans of Mexican descent. Yet, the trajectory of Mexican American culture in general and literary expression in particular is still relatively unknown. This course will offer a succinct overview of this rich literary tradition that dates to the mid-nineteenth century. In the first session Tatum will trace its development through the 1950s. In the following four sessions he will focus on the resurgence of Mexican American literature that began in the mid-1960s and that has rapidly burgeoned over the past six decades. Included in our readings will be the narrative fiction (novels and short stories), poetry and autobiographical works of authors such as Rudolfo Anaya, Lorna Dee Cervantes, Luis Urrea, Helena María Viramontes, Sandra Cisneros, Gary Soto, Alberto “Tito” Ríos and Juan Felipe Herrera (a recent U.S. poet laureate). In the last session Tatum will introduce a younger generation of Mexican American writers including Manuel Muñoz, Kristin Valdez Quade, Casandra López and Ada Limón. Dr. Charles Tatum is Professor Emeritus of Spanish at The University of Arizona. He is the author of a monographic study Chicano Literature (1982), published in translation in Mexico in 1986. Among his other book-length publications are: Chicano Popular Culture, 2001, (2nd edition, 2017); Chicano and Chicana Literature: Otra voz del pueblo (2006); and Lowriders in Chicano Culture. He has edited or co-edited several anthologies of Mexican American literature.
