To celebrate this LGBTQ Latinx and POC milestone, Rebel Satori Press has reissued the book with brand new cover art featuring a photograph by Richard Renaldi that captures the spirit and defiance of the Christopher Street West Side Highway piers. As part of Sweety’s Radio: Edicion Especial we will be honoring the anniversary of this chapbook with an exhibition and reception. On Friday, July 14, Xavier will be joined by percussionist Joyce Jones to recreate the spirit of late 90s poetry readings from the book Pier Queen in celebration of the 20th Anniversary of this landmark collection by a former homeless pier queen who went on to become one of the most significant voices of the LGBT and Latinx poetry movements. Drawn from Xavier’s personal archives as well as artists in conversation with his work, the exhibition spans several bodies of work from throughout Xavier’s career; from videos, event flyers, fan notes, memorabilia from that era as well as photographs by Richard Renaldi and artwork by Gabriel Garcia Roman. -

New Nuyorican Poets, Voices and Sounds: an Interview with Jaime Shaggy Flores
New Nuyorican Poets, Voices and Sounds: An Interview with Jaime Shaggy Flores Felicia L. Fahey, Bates College Liz Hoagland, Bates College Abstract In this interview Jaime "Shaggy" Flores talks about recent changes within the Nuyorican poetry movement and the emergence of two new generations of poets over the last two decades. He discusses a number of issues including the ongoing "island" vs. "mainland" debate, the impact of music on both generations, race and class differences, and his own views about the place of Nuyorican poetry within the African diaspora and Black cultures of the United States. New Nuyorican Poets, Voices and Sounds: When Jaime Flores, aka Shaggy, enters a theater or performance space, he doesn't enter quietly but as a catalyzing burst of energy. Transforming the space with vibration, he glides down the central isle delivering the simulated sounds of a human beat box, drawing the audience into an excited focus. Once on stage, he faces the crowd and gracefully pauses to find a breath before making his way through a verse from a traditional Yoruba Afro-Caribbean song: "Yemaya hace su, hace su Yemaya!" Hip Hop, African cultural traditions and a strong sense of performance indeed define Shaggy's poetic style, but his references are multiple, ranging from popular culture to spiritual rituals. Shaggy also plays on various poetic genres, including erotic and romantic poetry. As one of the young up-and-coming poets who has worked to reinvigorate the Nuyorican poetry movement in recent years, Shaggy brings a scholarly attitude to what he refers to as cultural work. -
Nuyorican and Diasporican Literature and Culture E
Nuyorlcan and Diasporican Uterature and Culture Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Literature Nuyorican and Diasporican Literature and Culture e Jorge Duany Subject: American Literature, Literary Studies (20th Centwy Onward) Online Publication Date: jan 2018 DOI: 10.1093/acrefore/9780190201098.013.387 Summary and K.eywords The term "Nuyorican" (in its various spellings) refers to the cornbination of "Puerto Rican" and "NewYorker." The sobriquet became a popular shorthand for the Puerto Rican exodus to the United States after World War II. Since the mid-1960s, the neologism became associated with the literary and artistic movement known as "Nuyorican." The movement was institutionalized with the 1973 founding ofthe Nuyorican Poets Café in the Lower East Side of Manhattan by Miguel Algarín and Miguel Piñero. Much of Nuyorican literature featured frequent autobiographical references, the predominance of the English language, street slang, realism, parodie humor, subversiva politics, and a ruptura with the island's literary models. Since the 1980s, the literature of the Puerto Rican diaspora has been characterized as "post-Nuyorican" or "Diasporican" to capture sorne of its stylistic and thematic shifts, including a movement away from urban blight. violence, colloquialism, and radicalism. The Bronx-born poet Maria Teresa ("Mariposa") Fernández coined the term "Diasporican" in a celebrated 1993 poem. Contemporary texts written by Puerto Ricans in the United States also reflect their growing dispersa! from their initial concentration in New York City.

Shame and the Narration of Subjectivity in Contemporary U.S.-Caribbean Fiction
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Carolina Digital Repository BLUSHING TO BE: SHAME AND THE NARRATION OF SUBJECTIVITY IN CONTEMPORARY U.S.-CARIBBEAN FICTION María Celina Bortolotto A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English and Comparative Literature. Chapel Hill 2008 Approved by: Professor María DeGuzmán Professor Tanya Shields Professor Alice Kuzniar Professor Rosa Perelmuter Professor Rebecka Rutledge-Fisher © 2008 María Celina Bortolotto ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT BLUSHING TO BE: Shame and the Narration of Subjectivity in Contemporary U.S.- Caribbean Fiction (Under the direction of Dr. María DeGuzmán and Dr. Tanya Shields) This study engages shame/affect (mostly psychoanalytical) theory in an interdisciplinary approach that traces narratives of resistance from “invisible” subjectivities within dominant U.S.- Caribbean discourses in contemporary fictional texts. It consists of an introduction, four chapters, and a conclusion. The introduction provides a precise theoretical background for the study. It defines key terms making a detailed reference to the prevailing discourses in the Caribbean and the U.S. The first chapter reveals examples in the fiction of the complex relationship between shame and visibility/invisibility as embodied in the figure of the secret/closet, in relation to prevailing identity discourses. The second chapter analyzes the relationship of shame with narcissistic and masochistic tendencies as presented in the fiction, evaluating the weight of narratives in the dynamics of such disorders. -

At 16, when Xavier came out to his mother, she threw him out of the house. A homeless gay teen on the streets of New York, Xavier soon turned to sex and drugs for money. He became a hustler at the West Side Highway piers and sold drugs in gay clubs. After landing a job at a gay bookstore, A Different Light, he began to write poetry and perform as a spoken word artist. “Pier Queen” (1997), Xavier’s self-published poetry collection, established him in the New York underground arts scene. “Christ Like” (1999), Xavier’s novel, was the first coming-of-age story by a gay Nuyorican (Puerto Rican living in New York). The novel earned him a Lambda Literary Award nomination. Fellow author Jaime Manrique said, “Once in a generation, a new voice emerges that makes us see the world in a dazzling new light. -

About a year ago, with the millenium fast approaching, an informal call went out that we were compiling a selec- tion of recent writings by Puerto Ricans in the diaspora for publication in the Centro Journal. Far beyond expectations, we received submissions from nearly fifty writers. Most of them are young and unpublished, and many of them were unknown to us. Works poured in from many places, not just the Bronx, El Barrio and Loisaida in New York but also Springfield (Massachusetts), Philadelphia, Chicago, San Francisco, Minneapolis and Madison (Wisconsin), among many other sites, including New Jersey and Connecticut. We were, of course, thrilled at the abundance and rich creativity of the present-day generation of Boricua writers, but at the same time overwhelmed at the prospect of trying to arrive at a selection that would fit in the allotted pages. -
Shame, Narcissistic Masochism and Camp in Emanuel Xavier's Christ-Like
Label Me Latina/o Fall 2013 Volume III 1 Just About Me: Shame, Narcissistic Masochism and Camp in Emanuel Xavier’s Christ-Like (1999) By María Celina Bortolotto Sometimes not caring is the only way to survive. -- Emanuel Xavier (Christ-Like, Rev. ed., 2009) Latino writer, poet, actor, and activist Emanuel Xavier’s first and only novel tells the semi-autobiographical tale of Miguel Álvarez, the son of a teen Ecuadorian girl and a Puerto Rican heartthrob who leaves her as soon as he finds out she is pregnant. The story of Miguel has many echoes of Emanuel’s own, including the description of both parents, the childhood sexual abuse inflicted by a family member, the escape from home to hustling in the streets, drug selling, and the security found under the protection of one of New York Ball Circuit’s “Houses.” This study focuses on Miguel, the novel’s main character, to explore the deep connections between shame, narcissism, and masochism as they appear depicted in Xavier’s novel, attempting to offer reflections that transcend the particular case study to encompass whole groups’ dynamics in their negotiations with the narratives in which they negotiate visibility and agency. Informed by films and research on the New York City House Ball Circuit,1 as well as on current theories on shame, this analysis focuses on some of the ways in which the author exposes the ferociously competitive atmosphere of the New York Circuit as the environment where many young Latinos construct identities and forge vital alliances, however ephemeral or dangerous these may turn out to be. -
