"Fewer than one per cent of all poets published by the mainstream poetry presses in Britain are black or Asian. You'd think it was the 1940s or 1950s but no, it's the 21st century. What is going on?" [UK]:
The published poetry scene actually needs an injection of alternative histories, cultures and stories.
