Dr. Patricia M. Perea The Northern Study Group believes it is appropriate and important to host the open letter to "Colleagues, Community Members, Family and Friends" by Dr. Patricia Perea. We believe the issues raised by Dr. Perea are of wide concern and demonstrate NNMC President Barceló's disinterest in dialogue and the unilateral decision-making that has often found her at odds with the larger community. Further, it is always powerful to take inventory on how we each act--or fail to act--on our convictions.
Concerns with the 2014 MALCS Summer Institute may be directed to President Barceló: nbarcelo@nnmc.edu MALCS Leadership: chicanas@malcs.org or the author of this letter Dr. Patricia Perea: patriciamperea@gmail.com The NNMC Study Group also invites any responses from NNMC President Barceló and/or MALCS leadership/members: nnmcstudygroup@gmail.com
Media commentary of Dr. Perea's courageous stance against MALCS sponsorship by war profiteers includes Houston's public radio station KPFT. A discussion of environmental racism and this year's MALCS Summer Institute was hosted by "Nuestra Palabra: Latino Writers Having Their Say" 8/5/14. Listen to the full discussion on itunes [Dr. Perea begins at 29:00]. In addition, Albuquerque, New Mexico's "Daily Loco" has covered the MALCS controversy. Both links below. Please share widely.
