7:00 pm: Native American Heritage Month Event: A Conversation with Gordon Lee Johnson and Terria Smith7:00 pm: Native American Heritage Month Event: A Conversation with Gordon Lee Johnson and Terria Smith – Free and in person. Masks required. 3900 Mission Inn Ave, Riverside, CA 92501, Community Room (ground level) “The only fight he’d ever won was the grappling match against a stubborn package of Hostess Twinkies, and that was hard fought.” — Gordon Johnson, “Plato Plus Alexis,” from Bird Songs Don’t Lie In honor of Native American Heritage Month, join Inlandia Institute for a conversation with author and newspaperman Gordon Lee Johnson and editor/author Terria Smith. This event is part of Inlandia at Riverside Public Library’s First Thursdays Arts Walk events series. Rich in culture, history, and heritage, Johnson and Smith will discuss their own paths to writing, what they’re working on now, their work together as author and editor, and more. “Johnson is certainly an ultimate tour guide through Inland Native California …,” writes Ruth Nolan. “[He] leads readers through his many stories in ways that share cultural values and practices along with glimpses of the heartbreak and outrage that have resulted from centuries of forced assimilations from the non-Native world.” Terria Smith is the Berkeley Roundhouse Director for Heyday Books, which includes editing News From Native California magazine – a quarterly publication “devoted to the vibrant cultures, arts, languages, histories, social justice movements, and stories of California’s diverse Indian peoples” and serving as the Director of California Indian Publishing. Books will be available for sale at the event. To preorder, please visit: https://www.heydaybooks.com/catalog/bird-songs-dont-lie-writings-from-the-rez/. |

11:00 am: Book Launch and Celebration for "Remyth" by Adam D. Martinez at RAM11:00 am: Book Launch and Celebration for "Remyth" by Adam D. Martinez at RAM – Riverside Art Museum 3425 Mission Inn Ave, Riverside, CA 92501 Masks AND Proof of Vaccination required. Free and open to the public, but an RSVP is required. To RSVP, visit: https://tinyurl.com/RemythLaunch Join Inlandia Institute at Riverside Art Museum on Saturday, November 13, from 11:00 AM-1:00 PM, as we celebrate the launch of Hillary Gravendyk Poetry Prize-winner Remyth: A Postmodernist Ritual by Adam D. Martinez. Remyth is a baptism and an exorcism. It's Hip-Hop and Punk. It's high art meeting low art at the church altar. It's a Works Cited page meeting with a ruthless remix culture unwilling to claim ownership and more than willing to take what it needs to make meaning. Remyth is a concept that is indebted to remix culture and self-preservation. The spirit of this book is a ritual in form and content, aiming to make sense of a life filled with social media, distrust, anxiety, depression, pop culture, and longing for the feelings that relics of the past can create. This collection of poetry joins various poetic styles (such as prose, rhizomes, futurist, and free verse) to highlight the psychic and corporeal effects of being a multicultural 20-something navigating identity post-heartbreak and in the nascent stages of coming to terms with childhood traumas. The poetry reading and book launch are free and open to the public, but registration is required. To RSVP visit https://tinyurl.com/RemythLaunch To order Remyth: A Postmodernist Ritual, please visit Inlandia Books at: https://inlandia-institute.square.site/shop/Preorders/10. Adam Daniel Martinez first scraped his knee playing in his hometown of San Bernardino, California. Since then, as a first-generation Chicano college student, he has earned a dual MA/MFA in English and Creative Writing at Chapman University. Adam has written and performed music in the Inland Empire for over 15 years, most notably under the moniker Faimkills. He is the co-founder of Pour Vida, a digital literary zine. Currently, Adam enjoys sharing his love for words with his students as an English professor at Chaffey College. He lives in Redlands, California with his wife and two cats, Virginia and Percival. |
