Friday, March 4; poet Kevin Young read from his new book “Ardency: A Chronicle of the Amistad Rebels.”
“Acclaimed poet Kevin Young gathers here a chorus of voices that tells the story of the Africans who mutinied onboard the slave ship Amistad. Written over twenty years, this poetic epic—part libretto, part captivity epistle—makes the past present, and even its sorrows sing.” –RandomHouse
The reading took place at Greenlight Bookstore in Brooklyn, NY
