New Bronx Novel By BAAD's Charles Rice-Gonzalez
Veteran community and LGBT activist Charles Rice-Gonzalez, whose day job is executive director of BAAD (Bronx Academy of Arts and Dance), somehow found the time to pen his first novel, Chulito, which, according to a press release, is "a coming-of-age, coming out love story of a sexy, tough, hip hop-loving, young Latino man and the colorful characters who populate his block."
The book will be released on Oct. 11, which is National Coming Out Day, by Magnus Books. Rice-Gonzalez will read from his book that day at 7 p.m. at Barnes and Noble, 2289 Broadway at 82nd Street in Manhattan.
