    Extractions: Fifth Annual Workshop/Retreat When Cave Canem announced recently that one of its participants had her manuscript selected as 1999 prize winner by Rita Dove, and was going to be published by Graywolf Press, it was just the latest success for an organizaiton that is dedicated to a widening range of support and networking activities for African-American poets. Natasha Trethewey, who Cave Canem organizers say was an accomplished young writer "just waiting to be discovered," was recognized when Rita Dove chose her manuscript "Domestic Work" from the 1999 submissions to the competition - the first in the organization's young history. And if that wasn't news enough, Trethewey followed up on that achievement with a Bunting Fellowship at Harvard.

The series has already featured poets Wendy Cope, James Welch and Timothy Murphy, and will run through March 2000, concluding with appearances by novelist Jane Hamilton and poet-novelist Jim Harrison. Adrienne Rich But for the autumn and early winter months, poetry will dominate. Feminist critic, teacher, social activist, maker of new language, rebel those words have all been used to describe Adrienne Rich, but the most accurate and inevitable word for her is visionary. Throughout a long career, Rich has envisioned a more vital and democratic literary culture, and she has helped make it happen. Barely 21 when her first book of poetry

Books Poetry Review: Poetry packs punch in racism program at Warhol Monday, December 10, 2001 By Bob Hoover , Post-Gazette Book Editor The Warhol Museum's Without Sanctuary exhibit of lynching photos has spawned a variety of community programs on the issue of racism. One of its most powerful was Friday night, hitting with the impact only poetry can deliver. The poets were Toi Derricotte and Michael S. Harper, whose personal and historical knowledge of racism pours directly from their experiences as black Americans. Harper is both physically and intellectually a formidable presence who often dominated the evening, which combined readings and a panel discussion. Derricotte is a more vulnerable and self-revealing poet whose intensely personal works described the interior despair that racism can bring. Both seemed to draw inspiration from the nearly filled auditorium. It was one of the most diverse crowds I've seen at any poetry reading lately, sprinkled here and there with local poets and writers.

    Extractions: A l'image de ses aînés, descendants d'esclaves, Toi Derricotte a grandi aux Etats-Unis « comme un arbre sur un sol hostile ». Elle est ce que les Antillais nomment joliment une femme noire avec la peau « chappée », mot créole formé à partir du verbe échapper et qui signifie que l'épiderme est très clair. L'auteur, professeur de littérature à l'université de Pittsburgh, en Pennsylvanie, porte en elle quelque chose des jours sombres d'autrefois. Sa souffrance est d'autant plus grande que sa couleur de peau « empêche littéralement les choses d'être blanches ou noires ». Ce qui la place dans un rapport où l'équivoque est constamment de mise entre son appartenance à la « minorité visible » et son apparence « neutre », sans couleur marquée susceptible de la « désigner ». L'ultime prière de Frantz Fanon, l'auteur de Peau noire, masque blanc « Oh mon corps, fais de moi toujours un homme qui interroge », a été entendue par l'auteur, même si l'interrogation est ici moins politique et militante que personnelle. Toi Derricotte est le sujet de son livre ainsi que
