Poets in Pajamas Reading on Facebook Live - May 10th

I’ve been selected to participate in Poets in Pajamas reading series on Facebook Live!

On Sunday, May 10th I will be reading selections from Teaching While Black, answering questions, and trying not to bring shame upon my family.

We’ll see what happens.

Virtual Reading of "said the band-aid to the shotgun wound"

This virtual reading of "said the band-aid to the shotgun wound" is brought you by the good people at Raven Chronicles and the anthology Take a Stand: Art Against Hate where this poem was published.

I should also thank the "professional development" that was so horrible, it inspired this poem.

But I won't.
