Winter In America (Again

Poets respond to the 2024 elections.

With Allia Abullah-Matta, Anthology Editorial Board Member, and Kim D. Brandon, Poet/Activist.

Published in January 2025, Poets reflect on the 2024 election and beyond. A poetry reading from the anthology Winter In America (Again) – and a community discussion in honor of Poetry Month.
“Poets from the United States and beyond respond to the 2024 Presidential election. The poems are rooted in a belief that the incoming administration will not relieve or heal us from our nation’s past: the destruction of the environment, the unbridled use of power, the pervasive narrative that Black lives do not matter, patriarchy, reproductive injustice for women, silent support for the US prison-industrial complex, and the lack of compassion for diverse gender identity, immigrants, the indigenous, and unsheltered populations.”

Music by DuPree and Barry Kornhauser.
