Join us for an online discussion about African American poetry, the freedom struggle, and their role in current events led by poet Dr. Treasure Shields Redmond. Dr. Redmond's doctoral research focuses on the recorded performances of foundational Black women poets, and the ways they employed sound to impact the canon and justice movements. This discussion will center around the three poems found in the chapter of the Lift Every Voice Project Reader on "The Freedom Struggle."
