What are we to do now, without our Miles? It's hard to say, but it's our hope—& we believe Miles would agree—that the best way is to gather in his honor to fill a room with poetry. Come celebrate his work & his life on Wed, August 17, from 7:00-8:30 pm ET. https://t.co/2m7qAM51hp

How does a poem change the world? Listen to @pswordwoman recite her persona poem, "Skinhead," at the 2014 Palm Beach Poetry Festival. A close reading of African-American poetry is how we celebrate Black HIstory Month. https://t.co/ZVSL17SV2a #blackhistorymonth #pbpf

Following his 2022 PBPF craft talk, @kwamedawes elaborated: “I can’t control my family, my history, where I live, but if I practice my craft, the readiness will be there when the idea comes.” Let’s celebrate the words and ideas of African-American poets. #pbpf #blackhistorymonth

"The dragon is in the street dancing beneath windows / pasted with colored squares," from Lynda Hull. Happy Lunar New Year. As we usher out the Ox and welcome in the Tiger, we invite you to enjoy "Chinese New Year," at this link: https://t.co/yPyT5Gx0G8 #poetrycommunity #pbpf
