Poetic Legacies: Interpreting New Text From Writers Inspired by Phillis Wheatley Peters

The Genius of Phillis Wheatley Peters (PWP) programming continues from the Fall Semester with an awesome lineup of poets on Thursday Sept. 7, 4:30 pm eastern time.  Poet/scholars Drea Brown (US) and Alison Clarke (Canada) discuss and read from their Wheatley-inspired writing, moderated by UGA CW director Dr. Aruni Kashyap. Drs. McCaskill and Robbins of the PWP team will assist in navigating the Q&A.  Your questions, comments, and thoughts about the resonances of Wheatley in contemporary poetry and spoken word literature are the stars of this panel, too.
