Inhaltsangabe

Rich Bergeron has a multiracial family and a deep sense of social justice, not only about race in America, but also caring for all our people, entering into just wars, and simply doing the right thing. He gave up a good career in the U.S. Navy because of the Vietnam War, yet sympathizes with the people who served in 'Nam. His poetry reflects all this. Originally published in 1984, his poetry often lays his soul bare for all to see. As Louis Alemayehu says in his forward: "Here he is toward the end of a very violent century, publishing a book of poetry in red, white, black, yellow, brown, blue and green; in fierceness and love; in flesh and spirit."

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Rich Bergeron, a Dakota Sioux by adoption, is married to Barbara Rothman Bergeron, who is Jewish. Their oldest son is Black and Cherokee. Their younger sons are Eastern European and French-German-Scottish; their family is a mini-United Nations. Rich worked as a technical educator for many years, but lived for his history and cultural studies. Then he got his dream job designing social studies software for MECC (Minnesota Educational Computing Corporation / The Learning Company). After his most recent formal employment, he volunteered for two years with AmeriCorps and another year with VISTA. Now he spends his time teaching with Minneapolis Community Education and writing. His poetry has also been published in a number of Guild Press anthologies. He has written other items that were published in numerous media, including the Internet; “Three Acadian Generations” is an example of the latter. He is presently working on his first novel, Ripple Effect. His intense interest in social, cultural and racial issues is reflected in this, his first book of poems—WHERE DID THE SUNRISE GO?
