Except that this is dominating large companies, universities, Hollywood, etc.
Some people were making this kind of argument 8 or so years ago. But right now it doesn't make sense to make this kind of argument.
If anything the complacency of people who let those like you convince them that nothing would happen was one of the factors of their rise.

>Her pan-Africanist explorations of identity, gender, sexuality, class, and human experience make an indelible mark on the Canadian and global cultural landscape.

Why would her identity and the subject of their study have anything to do with the percieved quality of her work. This is why nobody respects academia anymore.

I like this but it is just one cool sounding line, would be better in a huge confessional poem.
My suspicions are that it is 1) good because I am drunk or 2) a line from a famous poem that I don't know that is made to look like a rupi poem.

I bought his pisan cantos but haven't found the time to read them. Is it worth it?
He struck me as an innovative creative translator but until that line I have found what I've read of him pretty lacking.
To answer Bob Dylan, he definitely wins over the insufferable Eliot though.

So she's from Jamaica and Africa? But where in Africa, you know Africa isn't a country, sweaty ;) Unless they mean like African American: Afro-Jamaican? Seems somewhat superfluous, since most (but not all, I know) Jamaicans are black anyway...

Some of them are, but a lot drone on about ursury and the jews and stuff nobody who isn't Pound cares about, but some are very beautiful. I'll post a few standouts:

My school has a lot of social justice oriented clubs and events, and of course a gender studies department, but it's pretty easy to ignore. It's annoying to constantly get announcements from the feminist or lgbt clubs about events that they're having, but other than that it doesn't interfere with my life at all.

My uni has a feminist club, but I've never heard a peep out of them and only know it exists because I saw it in a pamphlet. It makes me wonder if it's a group of reasonable feminists considering that I've only met one person who fits an SJW stereotype on campus (it was a black girl who said "YAS QUEEN SLAY" without a hint of irony).

My uni has "gender neutral bathrooms", pro-trans, BLM artwork, and feminist murals everywhere, as well as constant articles, posts, and even classes tailored towards diversity. In my English Literature class, I even got scolded by the (white female) professor for daring to claim that Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness was not racist, and also that none of the natives in Jean Rhys' Wide Sargasso Sea come across very well - that perhaps everyone is equally capable of being fucked up and cruel. People read that one Achebe essay and assume Conrad was some pro-colonialist zealot, it's irritating. This is in Scotland though, which is very faux-progressive
