81. MetroActive Books | Luis Rodriguez The Santa Rosa Board of Education is using intimidation tactics to keepAlways Running, by luis J. rodriguez, out of the school curriculum. http://www.metroactive.com/papers/sonoma/02.04.99/rodriquez3-9905.html

Books Index Sonoma County Independent MetroActive Central Archives Luis Rodriguez's Always Running Should teachers be allowed to assign controversial books such as Always Running to high school students? By David Dericco Windsor High School, Grade 12 This essay won first prize in the American Civil Liberties Union's high school student essay contest, which asked young writers in Sonoma County to answer the question "Should teachers be allowed to assign controversial books such as Always Running to high school students?" The winning writer, David Dericco, will be awarded a $500 college scholarship prize at an ACLU banquet on Saturday, Feb. 20. No essays supporting a ban on the book were received, according to the ACLU. THE FIRST Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America guarantees its citizens the right to receive information, regardless of how controversial the content. There is nothing written in this famous document that would exclude high school students from receiving the same benefits. School districts are in error when they ban books because of parental complaints. Schools are then hesitant to assign books with themes, words, or characters that could possibly offend any number of ethnic groups or organizations. Free informed choice of curriculum is destroyed. School districts, ever wary of lawsuits, need to realize that they have a duty to protect students from racial or sexual harassment by their peers; but to ban materials based on their controversial content is an obstruction of one's civil rights, as guaranteed by the First Amendment.

Awards Calendar Journal Poetry in Motion ... Resources What is American About American Poetry? Luis J. Rodriguez March 20, 1998 Dear Elise Paschen and Robert Polito: Thank you for inviting me to respond to your questions for the fall three-day festival of discussion and readings on "What is American about American Poetry?" My response is in the form of a free-flowing thought piece, incorporating more than a few of your questions. I hope this helps. If there is anything else I can do, please contact me. I believe in what you are doing to help make poetry an everyday, an everywhere, and an every occasion thing. What is American about American Poetry? I'm a poet because Walt Whitman said I should be one. "Future poets, you have to justify me," the Old Man admonished. But mostly I'm a poet because if not I will truly fail to live. I'm an American poet because this American life has impelled me toward words. America, as you know, is a stretch of land from pole to pole, what the Mexica/Aztec people called Cem-Anáhuac
