Poetry Celebration
As part of National Poetry Month Celebration in April, we were joined by poets Ariana Brown, Jasminne Mendez, and Vanessa Angélica Villarreal. Presented by the 2020-21 UCR Tomás Rivera Conference.
Writers Week
Writers Kamala Puligandla, Melissa Valentine, Tommy Pico joined a virtual panel and reading as part of UC Riverside’s 44th-annual Writers Week. Writers Week is California’s longest-running free literary festival.
Mother Patchwork
Mother Patchwork is the work of John Jennings, UCR professor of Media and Cultural Studies, with David Brame and UCR alumnus Esperanza Bey, stitched together with the sounds of Moon Medicin, and rendered as animation by Daniel Rowe. This animation recognizes that the logic of the quilt, which stitches part to part, is also the logic that transforms still into moving image. And like quilting, it is a process that involves many hands.
