It later was put on the Hunter Thompson website. <br /><br />http://labloga.blogspot.com/2008/08/when-zeta-met-hunter.html<br /><br />Hope to catch up with you in San Anto next week. <br /><br />Gregg<br /><br />Also I might mention that Tennessee William appropriated the character of Stanley Kowalski from his Tejano muse Pancho Rodriguez. La Bloga interviewed me in this regard after my play Rancho Pancho was produced.<br /><br />See also Jesus Treviño's interview w/me at Latinopia: <br />http://latinopia.com/latino-theater/latinopia-teatro-rancho-pancho-1/Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14877778182011776588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9367921.post-66080158005510770292013-08-25T09:58:51.893-06:002013-08-25T09:58:51.893-06:00So, this is the role of Chicanos in American liter...So, this is the role of Chicanos in American literature, and the counterculture. Reminds me of when I first sold Cortez on Jupiter -- I was told how was so brave to write about "minorities" because "They get offended, you know . . ." They ever suggested I use a "slightly Hispanic" psuedonym. I kept saying I was a Chicano. By the time the word got around they were treating me like an illegal alien. Maybe I should have tried to "pass for white" and told them it was the result of a few research trips into the barrio . . . ay! That's so absurd! Good luck at the con. I'm not sure if a lot of these Anglo-Americano sci-fi folks are ready for this, but the futuro beckons . . .ERNEST HOGANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16540897948215678872noreply@blogger.com
