Have you ever read poetry that uses fieldwork and archives to address important social and political concerns? Come hear three acclaimed poets who employ research and reporting to grapple with such timely issues as immigration, identity, cultural appropriation, racism, and the military- and prison-industrial complexes.
The series is organized by Tulsa Artist Fellow Kaveh Bassiri and sponsored by the Department of English and Creative Writing at The University of Tulsa, the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Oklahoma Center for the Humanities, and the Tulsa Artist Fellowship.
