Paper post

Paper on Lorna Dee Cervantes
Thesis about the poem:Poem for the Young White Man Who asked me how I, an intelligent, well-read person could believe in the war between races.
The thesis about the way Cervantes, as poet, has many voices within the poem, one of being minority in both sex and race, but then also having a voice separate from the minority, having the voice of a poet.
The paper also delves into analysing the reasoning behind this specific poem being the one in Anthologies.
Also sections on the way the poem is connected to another poem in the book Emplumada.
How this book of poetry relates to her other books, the way her poetry has changed
The style of that specific poem compared to other poems in the book.
