Listen in this Friday at 7pm to Full Circle on @KPFA to @_DariusSimpson, @AchyObejas @achylandia @guaraguasi & @MimiTempestt @thegoddessmimi explore the power of poetry, and it’s place in revolution. These virtual kitchen conversations were inspired by Audre Lorde’s essay Poetry is not a Luxury.  

We’ll share live recordings from @Litquake Out Loud’s outdoor stage 10/16 Revolution Poeticized which challenges each of us to reimagine what true political transformation looks like through poetry. In Three Voices, Three Worlds, Achy Obejas presents Boomerang/Bumerán, a bilingual collection of lyrical poetry written in mostly gender-free English and Spanish that addresses immigration, displacement, love and activism.

Tonight’s host, Graduate Apprentice Steve Grevious (aka Stevie G, History of Funk), along with voices both past and present, remember the Black Panther Party.

55 years ago, this month, the community stepped forward with a voice of its own. A voice of the youth, filled with spirit, energy, anger (and strategic, emotional content) and a supportive health, educational, political and security perspective born out of the civil rights narrative and experience. On October 1966, the Black Panther Party was formed, and informed the world about the black community!
