The most recent engagement was at South Texas College in Starr County. I called my speech "Be The Flow" which was short for a new phrase that I came up with: "Don't go with the flow, Be The Flow."

​I am certain most people who come across this will acknowledge having heard such words uttered to them as "Just go with the flow." That was my intent to cast light at how we are trained from early on to doubt our own ideas and instead just do as everyone else does. But when we learn to listen to our own intuition we can make breakthroughs that can change our lives, and sometimes even change the world.

​Click HERE to sample the first installment of that speech.

The Fluid Chicano Book Reviews

Picture
Excerpt of David Bowles' article "Top Shelf: Four Texas Poets to check out" in The Monitor newspaper. Read the FULL ARTICLE HERE.
 
"Another Valley poet whose work I’m enjoying is Gabriel Sánchez. Last year, Slough Press released his debut “The Fluid Chicano,” an exploration of place and identity along the Río Grande. It’s a passionate, lively debut that reflects deeply on heritage and the renewal of the self. Stand-outs include “The Wall Is Coming Down,” a rousing call to action; “I Am the Bridge,” in which Sánchez clearly situates himself in a nepantla or ideological frontier not only between American and Mexican, but between Chicano and “born-anew Chicano,” transcending even the strictures of revolutionary identity to encompass all worlds."
