Quetzales Are Not Extinct ***

Poet Ramon Del Castillo connects the realities of being Mexica/AmerIndian/Chicano past and present in this collection of 30 gut-wrenching poems. He shares his own experiences, successes, and hardships as a veteran, as a son raised in the barrios of Wichita with the ghosts of his predecessors, slaughterhouse workers, railway gangs, dreamers, and zoot suiters.
