ChickenBones: A Journal Home Fathering Words E. Ethelbert Miller’s First Memoir By Julia A. Galbus In 2000, Washington D.C. poet and literary activist E. Ethelbert Miller (b. 1950) quietly published a memoir, Fathering Words: The Making of An African American Writer , with little supporting fanfare from the publisher, St. Martin’s Press. On April 7, 2003, the Washington D.C. public library system selected Fathering Words for its second annual DC We Read program, part of a national campaign that promotes literacy through the reading of a common text that suits a local community. The choice of Fathering Words signals a public acknowledgement that this autobiography appeals to a general audience. Fathering Words derives its poetic complexity from the multifaceted influences on Miller’s life. A memoir about family, it draws upon metaphors from sports, music, and African American history to reveal the heart of loss and the poetry of healing. Both Miller’s father, Egberto, and his brother, Richard, conceded to being trapped for the sake of other family members’ survival. The narrative is as much a testament to their lives as it is to the chronicle of Miller’s career. Ethelbert Miller’s brother Richard supported Ethelbert’s dream to become a writer by encouraging him to leave New York and escape the controlling grasp of their mother. Ethelbert’s father supports his son in the quiet way of many fathers, by working to pay for the family’s basic necessities. Both men die before Ethelbert is forty. The book portrays their mysterious unspoken love and the loss felt by the younger son. Miller’s mother, Enid, monitors the family’s behavior and prevents her children from being lost to the influences of the streets. She fails to leave family members room to discover themselves.

Free eBooks With Every Order! eBook Summary: The poet's journey begins in the heart. Here is a memoir from a poet that reminds us to pursue writing as much as love. Moving beyond the loss of both his father and brother, E. Ethelbert Miller tells the story of how love survived in his family. When Miller was about ten years old, his father told him how he could have left his mother. Years later, now a writer and a father, Miller looks back on that simple remark and how it shaped him. In Fathering Words, Miller explores his development as an African American writer, the responsibility of his chosen career, and his ambitions to raise the consciousness of black people. Miller's poetry often relies on the voices of women. Here in Fathering Words

126. Fathering: Empowering Disabled Dads The world of fathering is increasingly becoming more bifurcated or twosided. On the one hand, there are growing numbers of fathers who view fatherhood as http://parenthood.library.wisc.edu/Williams/Williams.html

Home Topics Authors Work Groups ... Search Fathering: Empowering Disabled Dads Roger T. Williams, PhD Professor and Chair Professional Development and Applied Studies University of Wisconsin-Madison One night, when my 22-year-old son was seven years old, I was tucking him in bed. We had been talking about his day, then I said my usual "good night" and told him I loved him. He looked up at me and said "Dad, why do you keep telling me you love me? You've probably told me that a zillion times!" His comment took me by surprise and, for several seconds, I simply couldn't respond. Then, when the response came, it came from deep, deep inside of me: "Landon, I guess it's because when I was a kid I never heard my Dad say he loved me. I want you to know that I love you. I don't want you to ever have to wonder about that. And I want you to know that I will love you always, no matter what happens in your life." Landon looked up at me with his big brown eyes and said "Thanks, DadI love you too!" This story highlights the importance of making a conscious decision about how to father one's children. The one rock-solid gift we can give our sons and daughters is our unconditional love and support. A child's knowledge that he/she is loved, valued and appreciated is the basic building block of a strong self-concept. If we don't make this conscious decision, then we are likely to father the way our fathers fathered us and that's likely to be in much the same way that their father's fathered them. As the Biblical adage says "the sins of the fathers"the sins of alcoholism, drug addiction, verbal abuse, sexual abuse, violence and neglectcan be visited on the next generation of youth.
