from totems to hip hop
i just found this! i had completely forgotten that Ishmael Reed planned to use some of the poetry that came out of his creative writing classes…. Wow! he published a poem of mine in his anthology: From Totems to Hip Hop: Poetry Across the Americas, 1900-2002. 
i took my poetry class with him my last semester as an undergraduate…in the spring of ‘96. thank you, Ishmael. thank you for being the down-to-earth, up-front, bad-ass teacher that you are. more on the anthology: Cynthia Kane “From Totems to Hip-Hop…” - Tribes Reviews
