45. Poets Against War
    poets Against the War serves poets in various ways, including publishing poetry via its website, providing information and resources to aid poets in creating strong networks  
    http://www.poetsagainstthewar.org/
    
    Extractions: Nearly eight years and more than a hundred thousand needless deaths ago, I asked my fellow poets to "speak for the conscience of our country" in opposition to a slaughter. Today, we continue to read of secret prisons and torture regimes, the bombing of civilians from unmanned planes. We know that two-thirds of Iraqi war casualties were "civilian." Human life is trifling, expendable, "an unfortunate consequence." The rich have grown infinitely richer; the poor, poorer. Our schools continue to decline and our country’s infrastructure is crumbling. We have fewer civil liberties and less hope for the future. We poets can provide a vision for hope if we are careful with our language and firm in our resolution. Meanwhile we all pay a terrible price: the war debt comes home in many ways. And the "conscience of our country" remains as elusive as ever in the eyes of the world. "A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual death."

46. Roque Dalton- Poets.org - Poetry, Poems, Bios & More
    Provides a detailed biography and links for the late El Salvador-born poet.  
    http://www.poets.org/poet.php/prmPID/297
    
    Extractions: La Ventana en el rostro ("The Window in My Face," 1961) and El turno del ofendido ("The Injured Party's Turn," 1962). He dedicated the latter book to the Salvadoran police chief who had filed the charges against him. La Ventana en el rostro and El Mar ("The Sea") in 1962, almost all of his poetic work was published in Cuba. In the summer of 1965, he returned to El Salvador to continue his political work. Two months after his arrival, he was arrested, tortured, and again sentenced to execution. However, he managed to escape death once more when an earthquake shattered the outer wall of his cell, enabling him to dig his way out through the rubble. He returned to Cuba and a few months later the Communist Party sent him to Prague as a correspondent for The International Review: Problems of Peace and Socialism . His book Taberna y ostros lugares ("Tavern and Other Places"), reflecting his long stay in Prague, won the Casa de las Américas poetry prize in 1969 and established Roque Dalton, at the age of thirty-four, as one of the best young poets in Latin America. In 1975, a military faction of the Ejército Revolucionario del Pueblo (ERP), unjustly accused him of trying to divide their organization and condemned him to death. They executed him on May 10, 1975, four days before his fortieth birthday.

51. Poets
    The Africana Collection at the University of Florida, George A. Smathers Libraries provides assistance to scholars at U.F. and elsewhere seeking library materials in support of  
    http://web.uflib.ufl.edu/cm/africana/poets.htm
    
    Extractions: Jean-Baptiste Tati-Loutard . Rep. of Congo (1938- ). Also see the African writers page, which focuses on novelists. It also points to resources for research in African literatures, including reference sources and critical works. Francophone African poetry (that is, poetry written by Africans in the French language) is a rich and varied literary expression. While the colonial legacy can be blamed for much of Africa's ills, it is also largely responsible for this great contribution to humanity. For while many of Africa's diverse cultures have a long history of oral verse, the French language added a new medium through which African voices could be expressed to a broader, more international audience. The result is some of the most powerful work in the French language. Indeed, as Léopold Senghor declared upon becoming the first African invited into the Académie Française , the invention of Francophone African poetry has provided an opportunity not just for Africans to broaden their audience, but for African writers to actually influence and change the French language to suit a broader purpose.

52. Tory Dent- Poets.org - Poetry, Poems, Bios & More
    Provides a biography, photograph, samples and related links.  
    http://www.poets.org/poet.php/prmPID/106
    
    Extractions: Tory Dent was born in Wilmington, DE. She received a bachelor's degree from Barnard College in 1981 and a master's degree in creative writing at New York University. She is the author of three volumes of poetry: Black Milk (Sheep Meadow Press, 2005), HIV, Mon Amour (1999), which won the 1999 James Laughlin Award and was a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award; and What Silence Equals (1993), the title taken from a slogan by the AIDS activist group Act Up. Dent detailed her struggle with HIV in the vivid and unflinching poems of HIV, Mon Amour . About the book, Yusef Komunyakaa said, "This collection is a whirlpool of energy that seems to be reaching for cinematic clarity, driven by a need to confront modern psychology and ontology until there's a focus of certainty. Here's a map where ideas and experiences collide, and what rises out of the landscape underneath is a poetry that is painful and truthful, beautiful and terrifying, lyrical and narrative, always engaging the intellect and body politic." Her honors include grants from the New York Foundation for the Arts and the Money for Women/Barbara Deming Memorial Fund; The Rona Jaffe Foundation Writer’s Award; and three PEN American Center Grants for Writers with AIDS.
