Tracy Chapman Dated Alice Walker?

I don't think the musician Tracy Chapman is even officially out, but the Guardian writes about her relationship with Alice Walker (who speaks about it openly) as if it were common knowledge. I love that teh Guardian describes some of Walker's ideas (like a moratorium on ANYONE having a baby until certain crucial world issues are resolved) and then says she also has some REALLY wacky ideas. Wackier than that? Walker and I would NOT get along, I fear.
