Well, maybe this isn't so random.
If Latino poets are outraged by the treatment of Latino poetry books by certain reviewers, then they need to step up and review these books. That includes yours truly, so. I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin.
There are outlets for these kinds of work. Our (Acentos') project is called The Acentos Review, and we've been online for the last year. www.acentosreview.com.
The submissions period runs until August 15th. Check the site for guidelines.
Shout out to Craig Santos Perez, my all-time favorite shit-startin' NaBlogWriMo'er.
