In this encore broadcast of a March 2021 conversation, host Lauren Korn and poet-essayist Paisley Rekdal, author of ‘Appropriate: A Provocation,’ dive into the nuances of cultural appropriation in literature. What is the difference between depicting a character unlike one’s self and appropriating their culture and identity? What is the difference between one’s politics and one’s ethics?
This week during ‘The Write Question,’ Lauren chats with Greg M. Peters, author of ‘Our National Forests: Stories from America’s Most Important Public Lands’ (Timber Press).
This week during ‘The Write Question,’ Lauren chats with devotional poet Jos Charles, author of ‘a Year & other poems,’ her third full-length collection. These poems endure, as the poet has endured, loss and devastation California wildfires, housing insecurity, the death of loved ones.
