dc.description.abstractOne important mission of the Center for José Martí Studies Affiliate at the University of Tampa is to promote José Martí in the classroom. Whether through his literary works, journalism, or activism, teaching Marti to American students can pose challenges. Over the years, many of our colleagues have shared their successes and failures when the topic of how best to approach this iconic figure in our courses is broached. In this edition of Boletin Martiano, we hear from four educators who have introduced Martí in their classes successfully. Even though the approach, focus, and structure of their lessons may vary, each writer conveys a level of dedication that is not only admirable but also enlightening. Our first essayist, Dr. Jenna Sciuto, has recently published, Policing Intimacy: Law, Sexuality, and the Color Line in Twentieth-Century Hemispheric American Literature (2021, University Press of Mississippi). She serves as associate professor in the Department of English and Communication at Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts, and starts us off with her piece, Teaching José Martí in the Contemporary Global Anglophone Literature Classroom. Next, we hear from Dr. Rhi Johnson, who graduated recently with a doctorate in Hispanic Literature from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and now serves in the Department of Spanish and Portuguese at Indiana University as assistant professor. She shares her experience teaching Martí with her essay, Teaching Martí as Man, Myth, and Legend. Dr. Genny Ballard follows with her touching article, Butterflies in the Rubble: Teaching Martí During a Pandemic. She serves as professor of Spanish at Centre College, where she engages in community-based learning and has traveled with students to Mexico, Costa Rica, Panama, Cuba, Nicaragua, Spain, and Andorra. Decentering the Narrative: Teaching the Life and Selected Writing of José Martí, written by Dr. Lisa Nalbone, who serves as associate professor of Spanish at the University of Central Florida, concludes the newsletter. Collectively, these essays offer a broad array of how José Martí can be introduced to our students. Through these four dynamic examples, we too can aspire to incorporate Martí into our curriculum. If you would like to share how you approach Martí in the classroom for future consideration, please submit your 2000-word essay to cjmsa@ut.edu and we’ll keep the conversation going.en_US
