Lit Webinar: Amanda Gorman

with Gwendolyn Diaz-Ridgeway

Thursday, April 8, 3:00pm

Zoom videoconferencing platform

Amanda Gorman made history as the youngest known inaugural poet when she eloquently performed her poem titled “The Hill We Climb.” She wrote the piece after the January 6th attack on the United States Capitol.

The Lit Webinar will follow the seminar format in which the leader will begin the discussion with context and reflections on the literature to be enjoyed, then the participants will add to the discussion with comments and reflections. The reading material will be provided via links or other easily accessible texts. Join us for the celebration of the world of words well spoken and, in this case, performed.
