A Visit From Poets!




My class was lucky enough today to visit with Irene Latham and Charles Waters via Zoom! What a generous gift of time for Irene and Charles to answer the students' questions.

Here are two found #haikuforhope from their talk:


nothing will change if
we shut our mouths and refuse
to talk about race

(Irene's words)


writing
is telling
the truth

(Charles' words)

  1. What a great opportunity for you and the kids. Would have loved to hear that discussion. I got the book on your recommendation. Terrific!
