What does the symbol of a bird mean in ADRIENNE RICHs (and many other feminist poets) poems?
Answer: I don't know her poems, but if I had to guess I would say the bird represents freedom, and the ability to rise above. Women throughout history have been oppressed in many cultures and in many ways. A bird can fly when ever it chooses. When a bird takes flight it rises above it's surroundings, away from danger,etc. I am just guessing though.

What is the meaning behind the poem Aunt Jennifer’s Tigers by ADRIENNE RICH?
Answer: Aunt Jennifer's Tigers," which appeared in Rich's first collection of poems, is typical of her early work, illustrating the modest poetic ambitions for which she was praised by Auden. Technically, the work displays flawless craftsmanship, with a carefully regulated meter and rhyming couplets. Only later did Rich recognize how formalism functioned as she writes, "asbestos gloves," enabling her to grasp potentially dangerous materials without putting herself at risk, as in this poem.
The formalism of "Aunt Jennifer's Tigers" hides the more disturbing aspects of the poem and subordinates the theme of Aunt Jennifer's "ordeals" in marriage to the more "poetic" theme of the transcendence of art. The first verse of the poem describes the fearless tigers Aunt Jennifer creates in needlepoint. Their freedom and dignity is contrasted in the second verse to the restrictions of marriage, symbolized by the wedding band that weighs down Aunt Jennifer's fingers as she sews. The themes are resolved in the final, third, verse: Even death will not free Aunt Jennifer from her "ordeals," but the tigers she has created will continue to appear "proud and unafraid."
While the poem is technically brilliant, the themes that art endures beyond human life and that suffering may be redeemed through art are hardly original. Rich, however, uses an inventive image to recast these conventional themes in a new way and even hints, in the image of Aunt Jennifer weighed down by an oppressive marriage, at the feminism that would permeate her later work. Yet the poem remains quite impersonal; the reader sees Aunt Jennifer but is scarcely aware of the voice of the poem's narrator. For the reader, it is as though the picture is framed by an invisible hand, in contrast to Rich's later work, where the reader cannot help being aware of the poet's personal presence.
An Analysis of Aunt Jennifer's Tigers
An Analysis of "Aunt Jennifer's Tigers"
It is difficult to depict a primary poetic technique within this poem. The reason being that, many devices are used to bring forth the message that Rich has embedded within it. However, symbolism is the most prominent. The poem is set in a traditional format, using simple rhyme and meter to give the reader a sense of formality. Adrienne rich's "Aunt Jennifer's Tigers", depicts an audacious woman trapped within a timid and suppressed life. Marriage and the culture that supports it have effected the character in this poem greatly. Reality seems inescapable because of the ring that "sits heavily upon Aunt Jennifer's hand". The tapestry that Aunt Jennifer is creating in the poem, is very symbolic of her potential. When you picture a tiger, the words power, fluidity, nobility, and strength may accompany that image. Those same words accompany the hidden life of Aunt Jennifer.
The first stanza opens the poem with a truly bold image of tigers as "They pace in sleek chivalric certainty". The tigers obviously have a very significant symbolic purpose in this poem. They portray the fearlessness, assertion and power, that Aunt Jennifer displaces in order to lead her conventional life
Adrienne rich expresses some feminist concern in this poem. The poem was written in the 1950's, and in this era, the expectations and gender roles were much different than in the present. Aunt Jennifer is suppressed by the life she leads and more so by the conventional marriage she is trapped in. She is pinned down by the "massive weight of Uncle's wedding band". The feminist concern in this piece is symbolized in a number of ways. The oppressing gender expectations in the 50's have a connection with the domineering actions of men in this time. The reference to animals being hunted and driven up trees ties into this as well. The tigers themselves are even masculine figures, with their "chivalric certainty". The "ivory needle" is characteristic of the hunting of elephants for their tusks. This is all symbolic of the male dominance that has such a deep impact within the meaning of this poem. Just as the tigers are a projection of Aunt Jennifer, it seems the men beneath the tree are a projection of Uncle. As long as power can be envisioned only in terms that are culturally depicted as masculine, the revolutionary vision of Aunt Jennifer, which is all confined to a highly mediated and symbolic plane, will remain insufficient.

Is there video/photos of ADRIENNE RICH rejecting the 1974 Natl Book Award with Alice Walker and Audre Lorde?
In 1974, her collection Diving Into the Wreck received the National Book Award for Poetry; Rich, however, refused the award individually, instead joining with two other female poets (Alice Walker and Audre Lorde) to accept it on behalf of all silenced women.
Answer: I've definitely never found or heard of any video or photos of this event, unfortunately. The most coverage I could find was a 1974 New York Times article on the awards, and I'd pay the $3.95 to read it if I thought it might have included a picture of her speech, but I suspect it doesn't. I believe she and Lorde took the stage together when they accepted it (I don't think Walker came).
The speech Rich delivered, written together with the other women, has been published in snippets and quotes in a few different places, but the entirety, as far as I know, can only be found in the books "Inviting Transformation: Presentational Speaking for a Changing World" by Foss (page 148) and "Women's Voices in Our Time: Statements by American Leaders" by Victoria Defrancisco (in the epilogue).
Too bad; one good thing about this age is that our living history is captured in all sorts of media. It would have really been something to see her deliver that speech live! Anyway, in case you don't have it, the gist of it was (patched together from several sources):
"We, Audre Lorde, Adrienne rich, and Alice Walker, together accept this award in the name of all women whose voices have gone and still go unheard in a patriarchal world, and in the name of those who, like us, have been tolerated as token women in this culture, often at great cost and in great pain...We believe that we can enrich ourselves more in supporting and giving to each other than by competing against each other; and that poetry - if it *is* poetry - exists in a realm beyond ranking and comparison. We symbolically join together in refusing the terms of patriarchal competition and declaring that we will share this prize among us, to be used as best it can for women. We appreciated the good faith of the judges for this award, but none of us could accept this money for herself, nor could she let go unquestioned the terms on which poets are given or denied honor and livelihood in the world, especially when they are women...We dedicate this occasion to the struggle for self-determination of all women, of every color, identification or deprived class: the poet, the housewife, the lesbian, the mathematician, the mother, the dishwasher, the pregnant teenager, the teacher, the grandmother, the prostitute, the philosopher, the waitress, the women who will understand what we are doing here and those who will not understand yet...the silent women whose voices have been denied us, the articulate women who have given us strength to do our work."
(They ended up donating the $1000 prize to to the Sisterhood of Black Single Mothers in NYC.)

Storm Warnings by ADRIENNE RICH in depth explantion of metaphors?
I need a few key point metaphors that Adrienne rich conveys in her poem Storm Warnings. You will be the coolest person in the world if you can help me out.
Answer: The main message of Storm Warnings is that you can't stop bad stuff from happening, though you can sometimes stay out of its way.
The poem is a series of contrasts between inside the house (where the poet can watch the storm in safety) and outside the house (where the storm wreaks its havoc, indifferent to the poet watching it).
I leave the book upon a pillowed chair
And walk from window to closed window, watching
Boughs strain against the sky
If you go through the poem you will find several other places where Adrienne rich points out that storms are inconvenient, unless you are tucked up safe in your condo (which she is).
Adrienne rich yearns for the excitement which would come with being outside in the storm, but not so hard that she wants to leave her comfy pillowed chair.
It is a poem about missing out on life, and being cool with that.
It is American.
