There aren't any streets or postal holidays named for June Jordan, but she's cherished by and collaborated with her own share of landmarks: she has planned a new Harlem with R. Buckminster Fuller, sipped coffee with Malcolm X, gotten teaching advice from Toni Cade Bambara, co-starred in a film with Angela Davis, and written an opera with John Adams and Peter Sellars. But no June Jordan Day. Yet. If you're not yet familiar with June Jordan, award-winning author of no less than two dozen books, one of America's most extensively anthologized and prolific living poets, and one of the twentieth century's most critical activists and teachers, now is a good time to get acquainted. This month marks the publication of her twenty-fourth book, Kissing God Goodbye: New Poems 1991-1996, with a collection of political essays and a memoir soon to follow. Hers is a visionary voice, a trenchant, compassionate, and often humorous guide to the last years of the millenium. Kissing God Goodbye speaks eloquently of what seem to be the twin preoccupations of an unusually generous, clear-sighted wordsmith: responsiveness to the world in which we live, and responsibility to each other as human beings. June Jordan is a poet for whom political conviction exists in the same universe of moral effort as love (erotic, familial, and humanistic love. The collection places explicitly, intensely political works, shoulder-to-shoulder with a cycle of powerful, affecting poems that address love and passion as their thematic centerpieces.

Her father was a night shift postal worker and her mother was a nurse. When Jordan was five, the family moved to the Bedford-Stuyvesant area of Brooklyn. During her high school years, Jordan was "completely immersed in a white universe" while a student at Milwood High School and Northfield School for girls in Massachusetts. At Northfield, Jordan "discovered her poetic voice." Jordan's home situation was a source of conflict and anguish because of her father's physical abuse and her mother's denial. This environment resulted in Jordan's writing extensively about her parents and their positive and negative influences.

Text Only Version of This Page June Jordan June Jordan poet, novelist, essayist and political activist, is one of the world's most articulate and essential voices. Her work transcends traditional bounds of self and society, expressing conscious optimism- the unity of justice, equality and tenderness. Jordan is one of those rare writer/activists whose greatest strength is her ability to live what she believes. The author of 26 books, June Jordan is the most published African American writer in history. Ms. Magazine (July 2000) considers June Jordan "one of America's fiercest literary figures and social activists" and " the hope of a generation". Her 26th book, Soldier: A Poet's Childhood , was released by Basic Books on May 1, 2000 and since then has received unanimous national acclaim. Internationally celebrated for her creative accomplishments, she is Professor of African American Studies at the University of California at Berkeley where she directs the enormously popular Poetry For the People program. Poetry For the People received a Chancellor's Recognition for Community Partnership on September 19, 2000, for reaching out to local high schools, congregations and correctional facilities as well as University students. Jordan has been Professor of English at more than seven North American universities and colleges, including Sarah Lawrence, City College and Yale University.

Chapter 42: June Jordan June Jordan June Jordan June Jordan was born in Harlem in 1938, the only child of working class Jamaican parents. Growing up in an urban ghetto environment, she was influenced by her family's sense of heritage. Jordan received most of her education in a predominantly-white environment. Spending one year at a girls' preparatory school in Massachusetts, Jordan learned to love the literature she was exposed to, loving first the British Romantics . The appreciation for African American, women's and global literatures which is so evident in her own literary production came later. The deepest influences on Jordan's development as an intellectual and as a writer were her parents. Exposed from an early age to the classics of the Bible, Shakespeare, Edgar Allen Poe, and Paul Laurence Dunbar , she began writing poetry at age seven. Her mother's dreams of becoming an artist, and her suicide before realizing those dreams, motivated Jordan's feminist writing and action. Her mother was Jordan's most significant example in the history of neglected lives and dreams of African American women, which she has dedicated herself to transforming. One of the most political and personal battles of her life was that of her interracial marriage while an undergraduate at Barnard College in 1955. Her marriage and the birth of their son coincided with her involvement in the first stirrings of the Civil Rights Movement. When she met

Already, we've had hot, 90 degree days. Many anglers are already resorting to night fishing and the lakes are getting very crowded. On the other hand, we've also had some unseasonably cool, 50 degree nights, followed by comfortable, mid-70 degree days. Even cloudy, rainy periods, such as this weekends thunderstorms and downpours, increases the bite, especially on Jordan Lake. Heavy rains pounded Alabama for several days last week. Jordan Lake, the last of six lakes located near Montgomery, receives all the water coming down the mighty Coosa River. Early this week, this could mean a muddy-to-heavy stain in the lakes headwaters and the feeder creeks. This is bad for night fishing, so choosing spots during the day, with the clearest water, will increase your chances for success. Stained water is not so bad when fishing during the day.

Suggest a Name Names Index: A B C D ... Scholars Index Haruko/Love Poems : Love Poems by June Jordan Adrienne Cecile Rich Sara Miles (Editor) Never before has there been a single volume of love poetry so extraordinary in range. In Haruko/Love Poems, June Jordan expands and redefines the traditional idea of the love poem. In the first half of this volume, Jordan writes to Haruko in the style of the Neruda love poems. Taking from the haiku its purity and economy, but giving these poems a vision that is Jordan's own, the Haruko poems are at once urgent, passionate, and complex. Following the Haruko poems is a selection by Adrienne Rich and Sara Miles for 20 years of love poems that bear witness to the depth and breadth of Jordan's poetic brilliance. Midwest Book Review "June Jordan makes us think of Akhmatova, of Neruda. She is among the bravest, the most outraged. She is the universal poet."
