SUMMARY:Philly Loves Poetry: Interview and Readings Series Live Broadcast
DESCRIPTION:Can be viewed on the Phillycam website or Cable 66/966HD/967 or Verizon FIOS\, 29/30 In Philadelphia. \nJames Feichthaler is a poet with roots in the Philadelphia-area residing in Trenton\, NJ\, where he watches the skies for UFOs\, sings Irish folk songs on his porch\, and drinks beers. He was the host of an open mic reading series called The Dead Bards of Philadelphia for over ten years. His new book From the Back Porch of a War pulls no punches in its assessment of a politically-divided America seemingly at war with itself\, searching for moral integrity in a hashtag-hardened\, spiritually-bankrupt world. \nCharles S. Carr\, Host

SUMMARY:Moonstone Poetry: Fatal Force: Poetic Justice
DESCRIPTION:LIVE at Taller Puertorriqueño\n2600 N 5th St\, Philadelphia\, PA 19133 \nPolice killed 1\,352 victims the U.S. 2023  (mappingpoliceviolence.org). \nOn August 14\, 2023 Police officer\, Mark Dial shot and killed Eddie Irizarry. Philadelphia police told the media that the incident began when officers pulled over a car that was “driving erratically” and that “officers approached” the car\, that Irizarry “stepped out” of the car “with a knife” and that the “officers gave multiple commands for him to drop the knife\, and that  Irizarry “lunged at the officers”\, prompting the shooting. On August 15th\, Philadelphia police changed their story\, stating that Irizarry was actually in the car when he was shot six times.  Retracting the cover up\, Philadelphia Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw stated that officers’ body-worn camera footage “made it very clear that what we initially reported was not actually what happened.” Martín Espada recently wrote a poem to elegize the innocent young man whose alleged murder this past August is an outrage. \nThis initiative is co-sponsored by Casa de Duende as well as Taller Puertorriqueño and Moonstone. On the anniversary of Eddie Irizarry’s death\, the anthology will commemorate the book’s publication.
