Some people believe Soul is the string holding us together. It’s tasting a song so sweet it bows the body inward; it’s stories untold and waiting to happen; and it’s knowing that you’re connected not only to other people, but to the bass and the way the universe moves.
Gathered are a dynamic group of 40 poets, including Evie Shockley, Hanif Abdurraqib, Rachel Eliza Griffiths, Cathy Linh Che, José Olivarez, and Patricia Smith, who commemorate culture and music; trace the tapestry of family and community; and reflect the crossroads of living in today’s racial and political climate. Among poems about Motown, authors also answer the question "What does Soul mean to you?"
The anthology celebrates Soul Sister Revue, a reading series for established and emerging poets who write in the narrative tradition of storytelling. Visit the accompanying playlist https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0W3...
