SUMMARY:Philly Loves Poetry: J.C. Todd and Vernita Hall
DESCRIPTION:Philly Loves Poetry Interview and Readings Series\nJ.C Todd and Vernita Hall read And talk about \nConvergence: Poetry on Environmental Impacts of War\nTuesday November 10\, 2026 6:30pm – Live Broadcast\nCan be viewed on the Phillycam website Or Cable 66/966HD/967 or Verizon FIOS\, 29/30 In Philadelphia. \nJ. C. Todd is the author of four previous collections of poetry\, most recently The Damages of Morning\, a 2019 Eric Hoffer Award finalist.

Convergence: Poetry on Environmental Impacts of War is unique in its scope and its focus on how war’s intolerable human cost is inseparable from the devastation of nature and its non-human animals—war against life itself….” — Eleanor Wilner\, Chancellor\, Academy of American Poets – Charles S.

SUMMARY:Veterans/Armistice Day – LIVE
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday November 11\, 2026 – 7:30 pm EST – Veterans/Armistice Day – LIVE\nFergie’s Pub – 1214 Sansom Street\nWhen I read Armistice Day vs. Veterans Day by W.D. Ehrhart last year\, I said to myself\, next year\, I will have to do a program on Armistice Day. It is now next year. \nArmistice Day is an international holiday observed every year on November 11 to commemorate the end of World War I. The armistice was signed on November 11\, 1918 and took effect at 11:00 am\, ending the war on the Western Front. President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed the first Armistice Day in 1919\, although Congress did not formally recognize it until 1926. \nA celebration of Peace. \nThe Department of Defense was created as the National Military Establishment by the National Security Act of 1947. Trump’s executive order created the Department of War as a “secondary title” for the Department of Defense. \nA celebration of war. \nThis is about the institutions not the individuals – our veterans are not treated well. \nFeaturing Jan Barry\, a poet\, artist and author who lives in Teaneck\, New Jersey. After an Army tour in Vietnam\, he resigned from West Point to become a writer and peace activist. A retired reporter for the Bergen Record\, he served a term as Veterans For Peace Poet Laureate. An artist with Frontline Arts and a coordinator for Warrior Writers writing workshops for military veterans and family members\, he wrote Waging Art: Tackling Grief and Trauma with Creative Arts\, among other works. His most recent book is Waging Peace: From Vietnam to Volgograd. \nSean Lynch Host – Everyone is invited to participate as long as it is on topic
