Reading
S*an D. Henry-Smith + julie ezelle patton
Improvisational, dissident, perpetually remaking meaning through action— singing, assembling, reading, desiring—the writings of S*an D. Henry-Smith and julie ezelle patton promise to upend linguistic fixity, and in so doing, transform our relationship to the poem through the performance of vocalization–all formal strategies placed in service of Black life and its abundant traditions.
