Being selected to gather and be apart of this video reading of Tyler Cook's award winning poem, with poets from around the world was a blessing. It was further culminated when it was released to open GLAG21 a conference at Penn State University to combat food insecurities worldwide. We also took part in the "Poetry Café" also at Penn State sponsored by Poetry X Hunger and hosted by Dr. Hiram Larew.
What an honor it was to perform with such wonderful musicians and poets to help raise funds for the Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya this morning. I got very emotional at the end when the babies from the camp read some poetry. Please contact Donna Donna Guerin to help.
Here is tonight's podcast! It was such a joy to join host Michael Anthony Ingram and co-hosts Aaron R. Whitehead , Dee Lynn, and Jackie Oldham, Brian Donnell James to share Religious, Spiritual, and Inspirational Poetry. My Spirit was renewed. May yours be, too.
