DESCRIPTION:Frank B. Wilderson, III is an award-winning writer, poet, scholar, activist 
 and emerging filmmaker. Dr. Wilderson spent five years in South Africa as 
 an elected official in the African National Congress during the country’s 
 transition from apartheid and was a member of the ANC’s armed wing 
 Umkhonto We Sizwe. His books include Incognegro: a Memoir of Exile and 
 Apartheid  (Duke University Press, 2015) and Red, White, & Black: Cinema 
 and the Structure of U.S. Antagonisms (Duke University Press, 2010). 
 Novelist Ishmael Reed called Incognegro “an important contribution to the 
 African and African American canons and a rare American work that bridges 
 two cultures [Black American and Black South African].” Wilderson's 
 collection of poems, Sideways Between Stories, was published as a pamphlet 
 by Commune Editions.\n\nD.S. Marriott is originally from the UK, but now 
 lives in Oakland, California. His poetry is often associated with the 
 Cambridge school of poetry. And as a scholar, he has been a leading 
 theorist of afro-pessimism. In addition to Duppies, just out in the US from 
 Commune Editions, his recent books of poetry include Hoodoo Voodoo 
 (Shearsman, 2008) and In Neuter (Equipage, 2012). Whither Fanon? Studies in 
 the Blackness of Being  (Stanford University Press, 2018) joining his 
 earlier critical works, On Black Men (Columbia University Press, 2000) and 
 Haunted Life: Visual Culture and Black Modernity (Rutgers, 2007). \n
