SUMMARY:CANCELLED Living Writers: Marcelo Hernandez Castillo

He is the author of Cenzontle (BOA editions\, 2018)\, chosen by Brenda Shaughnessy as the winner of the 2017 A. Poulin Jr. prize and winner of the 2018 Northern California Book Award.

SUMMARY:Jody Greene: "Radical Learning - The Heart of the UC Santa Cruz Experience"
DESCRIPTION:This event will review the bold and radical educational vision of UC Santa Cruz since its inception\, while introducing alumni to the innovative 21st-century approaches we are taking to ensure all students can thrive at UC Santa Cruz and leave with the tools to make change in society. We will emphasize the university’s history of active and activist pedagogy; its commitment to an education grounded in social justice; its ahead-of-the-times choice to have no grades and interdisciplinary departments; and its unique status as the only public research university in the country that was also founded as a kind of “alternative school.” The event will include prominent learning scientists as well as undergraduates working on projects related to improving student learning. Participants will give lightning talks on what it takes for students to be outstanding learners in our 21st-century university. \nMore info about Alumni Weekend: https://alumniweekend.ucsc.edu/

SUMMARY:Living Writers: Juan Felipe Herrera
DESCRIPTION:Born on the migrant roads of Central California\, Juan Felipe grew up in the literary centers of the new Latinx Civil Rights Movement – San Diego\, Los Angeles and San Francisco. There he was inspired by bilingual and Aztec\, Mayan cultural roots\, as well as urban\, and multi-cultural and spoken word\, jazz styles on community performance stages. Also\, he has been a founder of various poetry\, jazz and afro-cuban percussion fusion ensembles\, and street theatre groups. Schools\, from UCLA\, Stanford to Iowa have been key to his thoughts on culture\, power and word.

Awards have been many — NEA and Guggenheim Fellowships\, California Arts Council grants\, the LA Times Robert Kirsch Award\, the UCAL Chancellor;s Medal\, the National Book Critic Circle Award\, The Autry Spirit Award\, the Latino International Award and the Pura Belpré Honor Award\, among others. His most recent book\, Imagine\, a children’s book. “Every word is made of kindness\,” he says.
