SUMMARY:Virtual Poetry - Fatal Force: Poetic Justice
DESCRIPTION:Fatal Force: Poetic Justice\nSaturday February 17\, 2024 – 7pm EST  Virtual \nJoin us on Zoom (Registration Required): https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZIsduGuqTgjEtIm1XVEz94i3LTtCLb8iG5D \nAs of December 4\, 2023\, 1085 people have been killed by police in the United States (Mapping Police Violence 2023). \nPolice officer\, Mark Dial shot and killed Eddie Irizarry on August 14\, 2023. On August 15th\, Philadelphia police changed their story\, stating that Irizarry was actually in the car when he was shot six times. 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.” Read more about the details and legal proceedings here: \n(The Killing of Eddie Irizarry). \nMartín Espada recently wrote a poem entitled\, “Officer Mark Dial\, Who Shot Eddie Irizarry\, Will Be Fired for Insubordination” to elegize the innocent young man whose alleged murder this past August is an outrage. \nFatal Force : Poetic Justice contributors\, featuring Martín Espada\, will read their work virtually on February 17th to honor poet/activist\, Julia de Burgos’ birthday. She was the foremother for the Nuyorican Poetry Movement in New York who advocated for anti-imperialism and social justice. Fatal Force: Poetic Justice commemorates her ideals. \nPresented by Taller Puertorriqueño\, Casa de Duende\, and Moonstone \n \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAlthough not everyone will be reading\, we have poems by these poets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMary Anne Abdo\nSonia Aggarwal\nAustin Alexis\nStar Anderson\nNaomi Ayala\nDiane Bier\nSteve Bloom\nChristopher Butters\nCameron Carvalho\nRaheem Curry\nMartin Espada\nSteven Halpern\nZita Holbourne\nAce Howlen\nJane Ellen Ibur\nIrving Jones\nRon Kolm\nDonald Krieger\nMindy Kronenberg\nD Lang\nJeffrey lee\nKostya Malukhin\nAurora McKee\nSamuel Miranda\nDavid Mook\nDeeci Murphy\nJane Muschenetz\nMaureen Nolan\nGeorge Northrup\nTauwan Patterson\nAlex Phuong\nRescue Poetix\nSusana Praver-Perez\nDavid Radavich\nAlexis Raymond\nSultana Raza\nJanet Restino\nJoe Roarty\nJake Rogers\nMykyta Ryzhykh\nIndia Shank\nCalvin Shaw\nLarissa Shmailo\nMegha Sood\nRowan Tate\nAlyssa Velazquez\nEike Waltz\nBruce Whitacre\nMartin Wiley\nGlenn Wright\nSamantha Wright
