SUMMARY:Book Release - James Feichthaler - Live Poetry
DESCRIPTION:Live Poetry at Fergie’s Pub and on Zoom \nJoin us in celebrating the release of poet James Feichthaler’s new book From the Back Porch of a War (Parnilis Media). A short reading will be followed by a book signing. \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. 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. \n Link for Zoom

SUMMARY:Virtual Poetry - May Day 2024 Anthology
DESCRIPTION:Sunday May 19\, 2024 – 2pm EDT – VIRTUAL \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZIvcOiqrTIuGtI4ZR23zt_f1C1FDbB5uk6U \nMay Day commemorating the historic struggles and gains made by workers and the labour movement\, observed in many countries on May 1. In 1889 an international federation of socialist groups and trade unions designated May 1 as a day in support of workers\, in commemoration of the Haymarket Riot in Chicago (1886). Five years later\, U.S. Pres. Grover Cleveland\, uneasy with the socialist origins of Workers’ Day\, signed legislation to make Labor Day—already held in some states on the first Monday of September—the official U.S. holiday in honour of workers. \nWe invited poets to reflect on the history of labor and the recent surges in the movement. You can purchase the anthology collection here. \nNot All Poets Will Be Reading – Open Reading Follows \nFeatured Poets \nMary Anne Abdo \nByron Beynon \nAJ Chilson \nCraig Czury \nJoan Donato \nSteven Halpern \nJane Ellen Ibur \nJones Irwin \nNathaniel Krenkel \nMharlyn Merriitt \nLeslie Perry \nJohn Potter \nAdam Rubin \nJennifer Schneider \nJulia Robinson Shimizu \nStephani Twidwell \nGail Wasserman \nKelley White
