SUMMARY:Palabra Pura: "Rooster Footed Devils"
DESCRIPTION:This installment of Palabra Pura will explore the effect on individuals and communities of not fitting in to preconceived Latino identities. It is curated by Jennifer Patiño and featuring poets Beatriz Ruiz\, Anthony Michael Cooremans and RIK Vazquez. \n  \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \nBeatriz J Ruiz was born and raised in Chicago and Guanajuato.  She is a writer by vocation\, not profession.  She is not a gold coin.  She has always tried to find home but instead has chosen to carry it on her back. She is an osicona\, a cabrona.  She is the boxer’s swan song. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAnthony Michael Cooremans was born and raised in San Antonio\, Texas. He writes poetry and short essays about modern society and history.  Much of his work focuses on racial ambiguity in increasingly diverse times. His is a Aydos Learning national award winner in poetry and the current Grand Slam poetry champion for Mental Graffiti – Chicago. Anthony is currently working on a project entitled Field Trips\, featuring stories commentary on what excites us as children.\n\nRIK Vazquez is a spoken word artist and educator. At the age of eighteen he coached the Steinmetz Poetry team which competed in Chicago’s “Louder Than A Bomb” youth poetry slam\, the team won and went on to compete on a national level. The teams RIK has coached in successive years have met all personal and educational goals they have set\, several going on to college as Creative Writing and English majors. In 2009\, 2011\, and 2012 he represented Chicago at the adult National Poetry Slam. In 2010 RIK became a member of Marc Smith’s Speak Easy poetry ensemble. Over the summer of 2011 he teamed up with Patricia Smith and Billy Tuggle and relaunched the traveling poetry collective known as the Four Star Poets. The only things he does better than writing poems is hunting lions and riding dolphins.
