Red Hen Poets Event- Featuring: Francesca Bell, Brynn Saito, & Douglas Manuel

Join us for a special reading with poets Francesca Bell, Brynn Saito, & Douglas Manuel of Red Hen Press.
Francesca Bell’s second collection of poems, What Small Sound, interrogates what it means to be a mother in a country where there are five times as many guns as children…citizen of a world teeming with iniquities and peril.
Under a Future Sky is a gathering of generations anchored in Brynn Saito’s journey with her father to the desert prison where, over 80 years ago, her grandparents met and made a life.
Set in Anderson, Indiana in the 1960s, ’70s, and ’80s, Trouble Funk, by Douglas Manuel, exposes ways Black Love is thwarted but never destroyed by racism, classism, and sexism.
