Poetry of CSUMB professor pulled from Tucson classrooms

If your book is going to be removed from classrooms, being in the company of internationally acclaimed authors such as Martin Espada, James Baldwin and Sandra Cisneros is a good thing. That's how poet Diana Garcia, a professor of English at CSU Monterey Bay, feels about having her book, "When Living Was a Labor Camp," among 80 others now pulled from the classrooms of Tucson Unified School District in Arizona. – San Jose Mercury News, April 16, 2012
