Extractions: Page 1 I hope I can convey the spirit I feel. I hope I can convey the spirit I feel of cordiality about what we're sharing. This couldn't have happened twenty years ago. Ruth Stone said that we're on the threshold of an enormous explosion of women writers"Get out of the way everyone!" So as wonderful as this gathering of women poets offering tributes to Emily Dickinson is, we ain't seen nothing yet! I'd like to share some of my favorite Emily Dickinson poems. I'm not an Emily Dickinson scholar, but I have loved her for many, many years, for many reasons. One of the reasons is because of her great courage to look at thingsthe most terrifying, the most beautifulwithout flinching: It was not Death, for I stood up,

Extractions: (JP 1722) We're certainly writing here to do that, aren't we, to witness and believe. There was a little debate among usabout politics and poetry and how they are related, and what the politics of feminism has to do with Emily's work. Obviously there's a lot to be said from various points of view, how we feel about this. I wish we could meet, break into groups, and everybody talk about politics, poetry, and Emily Dickinson, about whether or not she chose to be a private poet. I found this poem, it's an interesting poem, in which she says this: I took my Power in my Hand -

Contemporary American Authors Lecture Series 2001. Contributor Spotlight toi derricotte. Ploughshares 22.1 (1996)208211. This brief poet. Judy Wood derricotte, toi. Among School http://www.marygrove.edu/contamauthors/TDerricotte/Bibliography.htm
Extractions: This brief article gives an overview of Derricotte’s autobiographical approach in her poetry. It provides helpful biographical details that illuminate some of her poems and briefly outlines the way "Derricotte’s literary career has blossomed" by tracing her publication history. The article introduces the issues of "race and gender, family and society" discussed in Derricotte’s works and includes quotations from an interview with the poet. Judy Wood "Among School Children" analyzes the pain and heartache felt by young black children. Derricotte speaks of the way her young students deal with their blackness. Children tell stories about their body features and other things they would change in order to fit into society. Blackness creates unhappiness for many students, and Derricotte changes many attitudes and beliefs when she reveals her racial identity. 15 pages. Nancy L. White
