@JohannesGoranss Poetry award culture is awful and many of us get mired in it, seeking literary citizenship and “protection” from the worst forms of economic precarity. Wish I could say more!
Super thrilled that all of the Recenter Press books are now available at @MakingWorldsBks, an abolitionist bookstore & social center in West Philly. Stop by 210 S 45th St Thurs-Sun from 12-6 to get a copy of our books, @CommonNotions books, and a ton of great literature ✊📚🚩
Betty White improvising on the spot while Bea Arthur and Rue McClanahan crack up laughing is the only thing you need to watch today. https://t.co/UEXDfxTQtr

Every annual retreat starts the tradition of an Opening Circle. For 25 years we have been proud to be one of the few places our fellows can share their stories with people in community who care.
Every poem has a story. Let’s support #BlackPoetsTogether: https://t.co/kq2H9gpl6O
