Celebrate Black poets this month and all months! Join us on Tuesday, February 22, 2022, at 6:00 p.m. ET as poets Linda Susan Jackson, Maya Marshall, and Afaa Weaver read a selection of their poems and discuss Cave Canem throughout its fruitful twenty-five years. Linda, Maya, and Afaa relate the influence Cave Canem has had on their own work and the work of others as a safe haven for Black creators to realize their full potential. With introduction by Dante Micheaux, Cave Canem’s twenty-fifth anniversary curator and artistic advisor. Thank you to The Givens Foundation for African American Literature for sponsoring this Black History Month event.
