Autobiography in Black and Brown by Michael Nieto Garcia
Richard Wright was the grandson of slaves, Richard Rodriguez the son of immigrants. One black, the other brown, each author prominently displays his race in the title of his autobiography. Despite their differences, Michael Nieto Garcia points out, the two share a preoccupation with issues of agency, class struggle, ethnic identity, the search for community, and the quest for social justice.
Michael Nieto Garcia is an assistant professor of literature at Clarkson University. His essays have appeared in various academic journals, as well as in the critical collections Identifying with Freedom: Indonesia after Suharto and The Culture and Philosophy of Ridley Scott. He is currently at work on Richard Rodriguez for the Contemporary Latino Writers and Directors series.
