To stand in solidarity with Trayvon Martin and his family and to speak on the national debate on civil rights and racial profiling, Kundiman will be writing a protest poem both virtually and as part of our Writing Race & Belonging presentation at the Gramsci Monument sponsored by Dia Art Foundation. Poets of color from around the country will participate in this poetic vigil for Trayvon Martin. You'll be able to view the virtual poem as it unfolds in real time on this webpage below.
