Breaking the Blank by Rebecca Bishophall and Dwayne Lawson-Brown- In-person

Dwayne Lawson-Brown and Rebecca Bishophall will read from Breaking the Blank, a dialogue between poets—and a meditation on love, parenting, gentrification, money, and the literary life.

Breaking the Blank is a dialogue between poets—and a meditation on love, parenting, gentrification, money, and the literary life. In accessible free verse, haiku, sonnets, and other forms, Dwayne Lawson-Brown and Rebecca Bishophall honor the African American experience, make sacred the ordinary, and remind the reader of the marvelous in the everyday.
