Join us on Wednesday, April 28, from 5:30-6:30pm Eastern on Zoom to discuss the work of Dominican-American poet Elizabeth Acevedo. We will focus, in particular, on her slam poetry, which is in English, with some Spanish. Our discussion will be in English.

You can find her slam poetry on her website -- www.acevedowrites.com/poetics -- where you can also find her TED talk “I use my poetry to confront the violence against women.”

This event is sponsored by Alpha Beta Beta, Yale's Chapter of Sigma Delta Pi, and the Department of Spanish and Portuguese. All members of the Yale community are welcome to join.

Please be sure to sign up in advance so that we can send you the relevant details and make sure that you get the Zoom link. If you have any questions, contact: sarah.glenski@yale.edu.
