Organizer
This event will be centered around Kwame’s new book “This Is the Honey: An Anthology of Contemporary Black Poets” which will be released in February. In this comprehensive and vibrant poetry anthology, best-selling author and poet Kwame Alexander curates a collection of contemporary anthems at turns tender and piercing and deeply inspiring throughout. Featuring work from well-loved poets such as Rita Dove, Jericho Brown, Warsan Shire, Ross Gay, Tracy K. Smith, Terrance Hayes, Morgan Parker and Nikki Giovanni, “This Is the Honey” is a rich and abundant offering of language from the poets giving voice to generations of resilient joy. Copies of this book and a selection of others will be available for sale at the box office. Attendees are welcome to bring their own copies for book signing which occurs after their presentation.
"Alexander is an accomplished writer, decorated with the top awards given to authors of literature for young people."
