Over 2000 Poets and Writers Boycott the Poetry Foundation "Over 2000 poets and writers....have pledged to boycott the Poetry Foundation (as well as its poetry journal, Poetry), citing 'a recent instance of prejudiced silencing' in which Joshua Gutterman Tranen’s review of Sam Sax’s collection PIG, which engages with anti-Zionist politics, was shelved indefinitely because the magazine didn’t want to be seen as 'picking a side' in the ongoing genocide unfolding in Gaza." via LITERARY HUB |
