SUMMARY:Virtual Reading: Remembering Paul Laurence Dunbar
DESCRIPTION:Virtual Reading: Remembering Paul Laurence Dunbar\nSunday June 26\, 2022 – 2 pm \nVirtual \nRegistration Required – Registration Link: \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZwof-2vqzsqG9ds6zRdZ9c866kl-iVbrBix \nJoin us for Paul Laurence Dunbar’s two hundredth birthday (born June 27\, 1872) \n“Paul Laurence Dunbar stands out as the first poet from the Negro race in the United States to show a combined mastery over poetic material and poetic technique\, to reveal innate literary distinction in what he wrote\, and to maintain a high level of performance. He was the first to rise to a height from which he could take a perspective view of his own race. He was the first to see objectively its humor\, its superstitions\, its short-comings; the first to feel sympathetically its heart-wounds\, its yearnings\, its aspirations\, and to voice them all in a purely literary form.”—James Weldon Johnson \nReadings by contributors to the Moonstone anthology
