It’s a thrill to be coming to Wordstock on this particular weekend—with the whole country taking on a new mandate for positive change and citizens across the old lines of red and blue brimming with the new energy of “yes we can!!” Fellow author William Cleveland and I have planned a conversation-session for Saturday at 1 pm to engage creative people (and that’s everyone!) in the “yes we can!!” spirit. Both of us have written books about the power of the arts—and in my case, especially “the word—to stir deep change in communities in crisis. - Yemisi Blake

** Posted using Viigo: Mobile RSS, Sports, Current Events and more ** Tonight I read at The South Bank in The Blue Room which was full. It was my book launch, sort of. It wasn’t really a launch, it was a reading and a talk, part of Poetry International. For the first time I saw Washing Lines an exhibition of poems on washing lines in a darkened room filled with music on the subject of Freedom of Expression. The audience walk into the room with a torch and discover the poems. It is performance poetry at its best. - Yemisi Blake
