[CALIBK12] An excellent Native literary magazine...

[Debbie Reese]

Hi all,

A lot of teachers in high schools write to me, 
asking about poetry by Native writers. With that in mind...

Those of you in public, high school, and 
post-secondary libraries might want to consider 
subscribing to a Native literary magazine called 
RED INK. It is beautiful in layout and content. 
In it are poems, short stories, essays, 
photographs, and graphic art by Native artists and writers.

I posted one poem from the latest issue over on 
my site 
(http://americanindiansinchildrensliterature.info) 
yesterday (June 25). I also posted the cover from 
the previous issue, which shows a traditional 
dancer, in profile, with his ipod. If your 
teachers do studies of popular culture art, 
they'll find plenty to work with in Red Ink.

Here's the website:
http://www.redinkmagazine.com/

It comes out twice a year. Institutional 
subscriptions are $35/year. Can't beat that, 
especially given the richness of the publication.

Debbie
