  Their Blood Got Mixed (eBook, ePUB)

  In the summer of 2012 the Kurdish people of northern Syria set out to create a multiethnic society in the Middle East. Persecuted for much of the 20th century, they dared to try to overcome social fragmentation by affirming social solidarity among all the region's ethnic and religious peoples. As Syria plunged into civil war, the Kurds and their Arab and Assyrian allies established a self-governing polity that was not only multiethnic but democratic. And women were not only permitted but encouraged to participate in all social roles alongside men, including political and military roles. To implement these goals, Rojava wanted to live in peace with its neighbors. Instead, it soon faced invasion by ISIS, a force that was in every way its opposite. ISIS attacked its neighbors in Iraq and Syria, imposing theocratic, tyrannical, femicidal rule on them. Those who might have resisted fled in terror. But when ISIS attacked the mostly Kurdish city of Kobane and overran much of it, the YPG and YPJ, or people's militias, declined to flee. Instead they resisted, and several countries, seeing their valiant resistance, formed an international coalition to assist them militarily. While the YPG and YPJ fought on the ground, the coalition coordinated airstrikes with them. They liberated village after village and in March 2019 captured ISIS's last territory in Syria. Around that time, two UK-based filmmakers invited the author to spend a month in Rojava making a film. She accepted, and arrived to explore the society and interview people. During that month, she explored how the revolution had progressed and especially the effects of the war on the society. She found that the war had reinforced social solidarity and welded together the multiethnic, gender-liberated society. As one man in Kobane told her, "Our blood got mixed."

  Two Brown Dots

  1. First printing: 2,000 copies. 2. Danni Quintos is the winner of the 20th annual A. Poulin, Jr. Poetry Prize, which was selected by Aimee Nezhukumatathil. This is her debut full-length poetry collection. 3. This title is part of BOA's New Poets of America Series, which have seen strong sales in recent seasons by such authors as Chen Chen and Marcelo Hernandez Castillo. Previous Poulin winners in this series have seen outstanding attention from The New York Times, Publishers Weekly, Library Journal, The Rumpus, Forward Reviews, etc. 4. Poet Aimee Nezhukumatathil will write the Foreword for the collection, and her name will appear on the cover. Nezhukumatathil is the author of the New York Times bestseller and Kirkus Prize finalist, World of Wonders: In Praise of Fireflies, Whale Sharks, & Other Astonishments (Milkweed, 2020), which was chosen as Barnes and Noble's Book of the Year for 2020. She is the author of four poetry collections: Oceanic (Copper Canyon, 2018), Lucky Fish (Tupelo Press, 2011), At The Drive-in Volcano (Tupelo Press, 2007), and Miracle Fruit (Tupelo, 2003). 5. Danni Quintos tackles the hot-button topics of race, gender, immigration, and identity from a Filipina/x-American perspective. The poems in this collection explore what it means to be a racially ambiguous, multiethnic Asian American woman growing up in Kentucky through the memories of girlhood, motherhood, family history, and Phillipine folklore. In the author's words: "It is an antidote to the definition of 'American' as 'white.' It means to carve out a space and let readers know that we exist, we belong, we are from here and will continue to be." 6. Quintos is a Kentuckian, a mom, an educator, and an Affrilachian Poet who studied with Ellen Hagan, Mitchell L. H. Douglas and Kelly Norman Ellis. She received her MFA in Poetry from Indiana University and currently serves as a Humanities Instructor at Bluegrass Community and Technical College. 7. Quintos's writing has appeared in Best New Poets 2015, Cream City Review, Day One, Pluck!, Salon, and in the chapbook PYTHON (Argus House, 2017), which features photography by her sister, Shelli Quintos. 8. Strong subject appeal for feminist studies, AAPI studies, multiethnic studies, and folklore studies, as well as courses on immigration, identity, race, gender, and intersectional identities. 9. Strong regional appeal in Kentucky/Appalachia, the South, the Pacific Northwest, the West Coast, and cities with large multiethnic/Filipina/Filipinx communities.

  Ethnic Modernism and the Making of US Literary Multiculturalism

  Ethnic Modernism and the Making of US Multiculturalism in which ethnic literary modernists of the 1930s play a crucial role. Focusing on the remarkable careers of four ethnic fiction writers of the 1930s (Younghill Kang, D'Arcy McNickle, Zora Neale Hurston, and Américo Paredes) Sorensen presents a new view of the history of multicultural literature in the U.S. The first part of the book situates these authors within the modernist era to provide an alternative, multicultural vision of American modernism. The second part examines the complex reception histories of these authors' works, showing how they have been claimed or rejected as ancestors for contemporary multiethnic writing. Combining the approaches of the new modernist studies and ethnic studies, the book.
