Spotlight on NCTE Poets: Lee Bennett Hopkins, with Sylvia Vardell. “…it is the stuff of all existence.” Welcome to the fifteenth episode of SPOTLIGHT ON NCTE POETS! The videos in this series with Lee Bennett Hopkins are brief and personal looks at all the recipients of the NCTE Award for Excellence in Poetry for Children. This series isn’t about analyzing the poets and their work, but rather about preserving Lee’s personal recollections, insights, and memories of each of these amazing people . Through these short interviews, we hope to foster an appreciation of the poets and their work by “reading it and loving it from the heart,” as Lee says. This installment brings us to a prolific and celebrated educator, poet, author, and anthologist who has dedicated his life to the advocacy of children’s poetry, to the benefit of us all. Lee Bennett Hopkins. Guest Speaker: Sylvia Vardell. Obviously, Lee could not speak about himself, so I called in another important and well known children’s poetry advocate and scholar , Dr. Sylvia Vardell, to do the honors for this episode. Sylvia is a professor of children’s literature at Texas Woman’s University, the author of numerous books for teachers, and one half of the team (with Janet Wong) for the Poetry Friday Anthology series. She blogs on children’s poetry at Poetry for Children. I am indebted to Sylvia for the time she took to research and prepare her excellent comments on Lee and to put up with an interview with me! Thank you, Sylvia! A Personal Note. I do not usually include my personal thoughts on the poets themselves, since that is Lee’s territory, but this is a special case. When I first interviewed Lee in 2013, I had no idea it would be the beginning of such a beautiful friendship. In the intervening years, I’ve come to look upon Lee as my own personal Willy Wonka of children’s poetry , a delightful, eccentric, wacky man who has led me into a world of pure imagination — and encouraged me to become a part of it. We have been working on this NCTE series for over two years, and in that time we have spent countless hours on Skype — most of them going off on tangents about poets and poetry that have enriched my own knowledge more than any master class ever could. By sharing his vast experience, Lee has given me a great gift — and indeed, has given that gift to us all through this series and through his continued, fervent advocacy of poetry and, more importantly, of poets both established and emerging. I struggled with figuring out how to thank Lee for this gift and for his dear friendship. In the end, I realized there are a lot of people out there who would also like to thank him. And so, with the generous contributions of 56 children’s poets, I have put together a special tribute video as our collective small way of saying a BIG thank you! That video appears at the end of the post. On with the show! In 2009, Lee Bennett Hopkins became the fifteenth recipient of the NCTE award. Celebrating with Walter Dean Myers, Rebecca Kai Dotlich, Me, Jane Yolen, J. Patrick Lewis, Georgia Heard, Sylvia Vardell, Janet Wong. As Lee himself has often noted, he was not a big reader as a child, but once he became a teacher, he realized how important poetry could be for kids. He was one of the first to bring the poetry of beloved adult poets — particularly Langston Hughes in Don’t You Turn Back (1969) — to a younger audience, thus getting an early start on what would become an incredible career as an anthologist. (Click on graphics to enlarge and read.) Indeed, I knew Lee first as an anthologist, and it was only later that I realized he had written plenty of work on his own, and in many genres. From the poetic ABC’s of Alphathoughts (2003)… …to the sweet observations in Kim’s Place (1974)… …to the joyous adventure of City I Love (2010), which takes us on a trip around the urban world, accompanied by dog and bird… …to the absolute poetic charm of the theatrical Full Moon and Star (2011), where Lee brought his love of theater to children … …to the myriad other collections that show not only Lee’s vast reach into all subjects, but also his ability to speak to children in their own language . Some of Lee’s collections, 1970-2012. And in 1995, WordSong published Lee’s touching autobiographical novel in poems , Been to Yesterdays: Poems of a Life , which won the Christopher Award and was a Golden Kite Award honor book. And it’s still in print! In my 2013 interview with Lee, he said about Been to Yesterdays : “My teenage years were in turmoil. I had a single-parent mother. It wasn’t easy growing up. But it was a wonderful childhood in many ways. We learned. We were streetwise.” With friend and mentor Charlotte Huck at the launch of BEEN TO YESTERDAYS. Lee did not restrict himself to poetry, however, penning also two autobiographical novels for young people — the popular Mama and Mama & Her Boys — as well as other novels and an autobiography.

  • African-American Poets Past and Present: a Historical View
    Curriculum Units by Fellows of the Yale-New Haven Teachers Institute 1991 Volume IV: Recent American Poetry: Expanding the Canon African-American Poets Past and Present: A Historical View Curriculum Unit 91.04.04 by Joyce Patton African American Poets Past and Present: A historical View will address in this unit African-American poets and the poetry they wrote throughout the course of history. They will be listed in chronological order as they appear in history. The Eighteenth Century Beginnings (1700-1800) brought us Phillis Wheatley and Jupiter Hammon. The Struggle Against Slavery and Racism (1800-1860) brought us George Moses Horton and Frances W. Harper. The Black Man in the Civil War (1861-1865). There were not any poets that came to us in this time frame. Reconstruction and Reaction (1865-1915) brought us Paul Laurence Dunbar, W.E.B. Du Bois, William S. Braithwaite, and Fenton Johnson. Renaissance and Radicalism (1915-1945) brought us James Weldon Johnson, Claude McKay, Langston Hughes, Contee Cullen, Angelina Grimke, Arna Bontemps, and Sterling Brown. The Present Generation brought us Robert Hayden, Gwendolyn Brooks, Imamu Baraka (LeRoi Jones), Owen Dodson, Samuel Allen, Mari E. Evans, Etheridge Knight, Don L. Lee, Sonia Sanchez and Nikki Giovanni. These poets have written poems that express the feelings of African-Americans from slavery to the present. Poems were not only things written during these times. There was folk literature, prison songs, spirituals, the blues, work songs, pop chart music, and rap music the craze of today, plus sermons delivered by ministers. The objectives of this unit are to teach children about the poets, the poems written expressing their feelings, and how to write poetry.

    YOUR REGIONAL TEAM: LINDA RODRIGUEZ BERNFELD (SCBWI Florida Co-Regional Advisor) has worked in radio, television, and newspapers. Today she’s a freelance writer, interviewing teens for positive people stories. She also writes newspaper stories about as many children’s writers as she can. Linda helped revive SCBWI in Florida when she started the Miami Mini- Conferences in 2001 which later became the Florida Regional Conference. She was able to get the first conference going when she overrode everyone’s objections and declared “conferences aren’t that much work.” Over the years, the conferences have gotten more and more complicated but they remain just as much fun. This is the year that Linda hopes to break out of the pack and actually finish a book. Linda is married to Jerry Bernfeld and has two sons, Brian, 20, and Kevin, 24, and their rescue dog, Harley, who spends as much time cowering at thunderstorms in the closet as Linda does reading children’s books. GABY TRIANA (SCBWI Florida Co-Regional Advisor) is a YA author, writing workshop instructor, and freelance ghostwriter. Her novels include SUMMER OF YESTERDAY (SimonPulse), BACKSTAGE PASS, CUBANITA, THE TEMPTRESS FOUR, and RIDING THE UNIVERSE (HarperCollins) and have earned the IRA Teen Choice Award, ALA Best Paperbacks, and Hispanic Magazine’s Good Reads of 2008. Her obsessions include Halloween, Disney World, hosting parties, designing mugs and wedding cakes, and watching Doctor Who with her three boys.
