One of her poems, entitJe<J•'Rituals of Spring,\ is about a fire that burnt down a factory in New York City on March 25, 1911. Currently the Math and Science Dept. of NYU is in that building, butthere isn't any plaque or memorial of that fire. Henderson-Holmes gives powerful images in her poem of the poor work- ingconditions the women were IJJider. She tells a tale of the women waJJting spring, wanting a better life, and wanting a betterenvironrnenttowork in. She also enlightens the audience of the safety hazards such as only having one set of escape stairs and that didn't even touch the ground. Henderson-Holmes shares the horror, the pain, and the death in hopes of having the university put up a me- morial. Another poem by Henderson- Holmes is \The Battle is Over and Over Again.\ This was inspired by the raciai riots at CoJwnj)ia Univer- sity in 1984. The Afro-Americans were beat by white people. but it was the black people that were arrested. Henderson-Holmesreadherpoem in court as part of evidence. The poem is about a foUI year-old girl that comes home fr!>m school crying, wondering why God dido 't make her white. Hermotl!eris upset because it is almost as if Martin Luther King aud Malcom X's efforts neverex.isted; racism w.ouldstilllive on. Her daughter finally decides to fight b~ck, and her jnner strength • grows. Henderson-Holmes read three other poems that are part «lf a series, they're titled, \'Good Housekeeping No. 17,\ Good Housekeeping No. 13\ and \Good Housekeeping No. I 8.\ Safiya Henderson-Holmes is part of the faculty at Syracuse Universiy. She did her undergraduate work at NYU and received her doctorate at Columbia University.
