Can you name any black US poets in the “avant-garde”? Forget about Goldsmith etc. I’m assuming that you accept that the term “avant-garde” has some meaning—otherwise this will be a very vague discussion.

I don';t know enough about the UK scene to comment. I also don't know what her motives is--it might just be ignorance. If she's talking about the Kenny Goldsmith/Vanessa Place end of things, there are very few poets of any description in it.
