  • American Book Awards 2004
    BEFORE COLUMBUS FOUNDATION PRESENTS THE AMERICAN BOOK AWARDS 2004 America was intended to be a place where freedom from discrimination was the means by which equality was achieved. Today, American culture THE is the most diverse ever on the face of this earth. Recognizing literary excel- lence demands a panoramic perspective. A narrow view strictly to the mainstream ignores all the tributaries that feed it. American literature is AMERICAN not one tradition but all traditions. From those who have been here for thousands of years to the most recent immigrants, we are all contributing to American culture. We are all being translated into a new language. BOOK Everyone should know by now that Columbus did not “discover” America. Rather, we are all still discovering America—and we must continue to do AWARDS so. The Before Columbus Foundation was founded in 1976 as a nonprofit educational and service organization dedicated to the promotion and dissemination of contemporary American multicultural literature. The goals of BCF are to provide recognition and a wider audience for the wealth of cultural and ethnic diversity that constitutes American writing. BCF has always employed the term “multicultural” not as a description of an aspect of American literature, but as a definition of all American litera- ture. BCF believes that the ingredients of America’s so-called “melting pot” are not only distinct, but integral to the unique constitution of American Culture—the whole comprises the parts. In 1978, the Board of Directors of BCF (authors, editors, and publishers representing the multicultural diversity of American Literature) decided that one of its programs should be a book award that would, for the first time, respect and honor excellence in American literature without restric- tion or bias with regard to race, sex, creed, cultural origin, size of press or ad budget, or even genre.

  • Annual Report 2008-2009 INTRODUCTION
    annual report 2008-2009 INTRODUCTION WE’RE PLEASED TO REPORT that despite a very challenging economic environment, Poets & Writers was able not only to maintain, but to improve and expand, its programs during the year ending June 30, 2009. Last year, we published six issues of Poets & Writers Magazine, which included special sections on independent presses, MFA programs, literary magazines, and writers retreats. We were especially proud to continue Agents & Editors, a highly popular fea- ture, which presented interviews with a number of top publishing professionals. We also launched Bullseye, a column that offers invaluable advice from literary magazine editors on submitting work to their journals. Circulation to the magazine remained steady at 55,000, and advertising revenue grew to over $1.2 million. Traffic to our Web site grew as well, to over 80,000 unique visitors per month. We continued to add new features to pw.org throughout the year, including Writers Recommend, in which authors talk about the books and art that inspire them to write. The site’s Speakeasy Message Forum continued to be a popular destination for authors to exchange advice and information on top- ics ranging from poetry contests to book contracts. And our databases of literary magazines and small presses received a high volume of visits from writers looking for places to submit their work. Our Information Services staff continued to provide a personal response to hundreds of e-mail and phone queries from writers, and we were pleased to be able to continue to offer this service free-of-charge. Staff also reviewed and approved applications from over 500 writers applying for listing in our Directory of Writers, which now includes over 8,000 poets, fiction writers, and creative nonfiction authors.

The book is divided into three sections. Part 1, "Multicultural Literature for Whom?" develops a rationale for expanding the canon to include multicultural literature in every student's .experience and also confronts the issue of censorship. Part 2, "Curricular Challenges: Beyond Eurocentric Values," begins the task of cataloging the multitude of literary works that might be included in the new repertoire and also explores the process of learning a different kind of critical analysis. This section of the book also provides ',omprehensive bibliographies of African American, Asian American, Jewish, Latino, Native American, and cross-cultural literatures, as well as bibliographies of literature addressing emotional/mental and physical disabilities, homelessness, homosexuality, older adults, teenage suicide, and Vietnam veterans.

  • DUSIE :Issue 19
    DUSIE the Asian Anglophone edition 2016 edited by Cynthia Arrieu-King Introduction For this issue of Dusie, I wanted to create a space where people could write Anglophonic or multi-lingual poems that they felt like writing but also enjoy a space designated “Asian” in the broadest ways possible. A freedom—let’s never forget—that doesn’t encroach on someone else’s; that moves toward self-determination. To me, that’s peace. I have all my life liked seeing things that are somewhat different together: quilts of cloth oddly matching/not matching, or houses in a row, or pageants. Friends used to tease me about the mixed tapes I gave them in high school because they seemed to have no “theme”: soft dirge of strings, then suddenly, a hip hop track. But why not? Seems like the way life is. Seeing designs, music, poems and people gather together in such difference is so heartening to me. Witness, narrative, lyric, fragment, daily life, ode, war, sexcapades, country western personas, indignation. Something like caught volition. The dream that includes us all: probably undreamable. But I think about it a lot. So then, why an issue of Asian poems written in English rather than of everyone? I was sitting on the beach in LA in March with Sueyeun Juliette Lee. We were looking at the ocean, the Pacific ocean, and I was considering that if I were still at the AWP bookfair I’d been at the day before, I might be selling books, but that blue! Pacific Ocean blue. It’s there and it’s not.
