Community of Practice: For Alumni of the Certified Listener Poet course
Tuesday, September 2, 2025
7 - 8pm ET
Facilitated by Salaam Green, Alabama Poet Laureate and Listener Poet
Salaam Green, Certified Listener Poet Cohort 1, will read from her recently released poetry collection and create a revival circle for Listener Poets.
The Other Revival reclaims the Southern revival as a space for truth-telling and healing through oral tradition. Green uses “revival” poetry to create healing spaces grounded in history and resilience. At a time when history is being erased, this book reminds us that the most vital archives live in people—in their voices, memories, and willingness to pass stories on.
During the revival circle Listener Poets will be invited to write their own “revival” poem and process with others.
