讲座摘要：

This talk close-reads and compares exemplary poems by three US poets from minority groups: Rita Dove (African-American); Diane Glancy (Native American); and Juan Felipe Herrera (Latino). These poets convey the distinct experiences of the communities and histories that they identify with, in varied poetic styles, from docupoetry to street slams.
