SUMMARY:Jesse Millner: A Reading From Memory’s Blue Sedan
DESCRIPTION:At a time in which many poems feel like sophisticated parlor games\, Memory’s Blue Sedan by Jesse Millner brings us back to the ground\, the soil of true poetry\, in which living things grow and flourish in all their various complexities. His haunted and haunting poems are awesome in their commingling of autobiography\, history\, and references to the customs and beliefs in which his mind and heart came to consciousness. Many of the poems in this book feel like living beings\, organic in their form and painfully honest in their revelations. Memory’s Blue Sedan speaks to both the heart and to the mind – indeed it speaks to the soul. It is a courageous book. \nSponsored by:

SUMMARY:John Murillo: A Reading From Kontemporary Amerikan Poetry
DESCRIPTION:John Murillo’s second book\, Kontemporary Amerikan Poetry\, is a reflective look at the legacy of institutional\, accepted violence against Blacks and Latinos\, and the personal and societal wreckage wrought by long histories of subjugation. A sparrow trapped in a car window evokes a mother battered by a father’s fists; a workout at an iron gym recalls a long-ago mentor who pushed the speaker “to become something unbreakable.” The presence of these and poetic forebears – Gil Scott-Heron and Yusef Komunyakaa – provide a context for strength in the face of danger and anger. At the heart of the book is a sonnet crown triggered by the shooting deaths of three Brooklyn men that becomes an extended meditation on the history of racial injustice and the notion of payback as a form of justice. “Maybe memory is the only home / you get\,” Murillo writes\, “and rage\, where you/first learn how fragile the axis/upon which everything tilts.” \nSponsored by:

SUMMARY:Resistencia: Poems of Protest and Revolution
DESCRIPTION:With a powerful and poignant introduction from Julia Alvarez\, Resistencia: Poems of Protest and Revolution\, edited by Mark Eisner and Tina Escaja\, is an extraordinary collection\, rooted in a strong tradition of protest poetry and voiced by icons of the movement and some of the most exciting writers today. The poets of Resistencia explore feminist\, queer\, Indigenous\, and ecological themes alongside historically prominent protests against imperialism\, dictatorships\, and economic inequality. Within this momentous collection\, poets representing every Latin American country grapple with identity\, place\, and belonging\, resisting easy definitions to render a nuanced and complex portrait of language in rebellion. \nIncluded in English translation alongside their original language\, the 54 poems in Resistencia are a testament to the art of translation as much as the act of resistance. An all-star team of translators\, including former U.S. Poet Laureate Juan Felipe Herrera along with young\, emerging talent\, have made many of the poems available for the first time to an English-speaking audience. Urgent\, timely\, and absolutely essential\, these poems inspire us all to embrace our most fearless selves and unite against all forms of tyranny and oppression. \nModerated by poet and translator JV Portela. \nSee below for a video of readings from contributors and a special introduction by Julia Alvarez. \nSponsored by:

SUMMARY:2019 National Poetry Series Winners
DESCRIPTION:Special introduction by Daniel Halpern\, founder of HarperCollins imprint Ecco and the National Poetry Series. \nThe National Poetry Series was established in 1978 to recognize and promote excellence in contemporary poetry by ensuring the publication of five books of poetry annually through participating publishers. In addition\, the National Poetry Series has partnered with Miami Book Fair to award the Paz Prize in Poetry\, which ensures bilingual publication for a book of poems written in Spanish. This conversation features Diane Louie on Fractal Shores: Poems\, in conversation with the judge who selected her manuscript\, Sherod Santos\, Square Inch Hours: Poems. \nCarlo Rovelli\, Italian physicist\, says that “the world is not a collection of things\, it is a collection of events.” Louie thinks of prose poems as little events. They are happening and happenings. They draw on experience\, image\, metaphor\, and all the properties of language to create little worlds-in-motion\, spinning while orbiting and actively shifting our point of view. Fractal Shores: Poems marries the inquiries of science and spiritual longing to illuminate what they – and we – have in common: a desire to understand our presence in a universe that does not yield ultimate answers. \nSponsored by:

SUMMARY:A U.S. Poet Laureate in Conversation
DESCRIPTION:In Every Day We Get More Illegal\, a collection of poems written during and immediately after two years on the road as United States Poet Laureate\, Juan Felipe Herrera reports back on his travels through contemporary America. Poems written in the heat of witness\, and later\, in quiet moments of reflection\, coalesce into an urgent\, trenchant\, and yet hope-filled portrait. The struggle and pain of those pushed to the edges\, the shootings and assaults and injustices of our streets\, the lethal border game that separates and divides\, and then: a shift of register\, a leap for peace and a view onto the possibility of unity. Every Day We Get More Illegal is a jolt to the conscience – filled with the multiple powers of the many voices and many textures of every day in America. \nModerated by Campbell McGrath\, Nouns & Verbs: New and Selected Poems. \nSponsored by:

SUMMARY:Poisoned Water: How the Citizens of Flint\, Michigan\, Fought for Their Lives and Warned the Nation
DESCRIPTION:Live Q&A: Wednesday\, November 18 @ 4 – 4:30 p.m. EST \nGrades 9 – 12 \nIn 2014\, Flint\, Michigan\, was a cash-strapped city that had been built up\, then abandoned by General Motors. As part of a plan to save money\, government officials decided that Flint would temporarily switch its water supply from Lake Huron to the Flint River. Within months\, many residents broke out in rashes. Then it got worse: Children stopped growing. Some people were hospitalized with mysterious illnesses. Others died. Citizens of Flint protested that the water was dangerous. Despite what seemed so apparent from the murky\, foul-smelling liquid pouring from the city’s faucets\, officials refused to listen. They treated the people of Flint as the problem\, not the water\, which was actually poisoning thousands. Poisoned Water shows not just how the crisis unfolded in 2014\, but also the history of racism and segregation that led up to it\, the beliefs and attitudes that fueled it\, and how the people of Flint fought – and are still fighting today – for clean water and healthy lives. \n
