From the jazz-laced street speech of African-American poet Sekou Sundiata’s Harlem nights to Palestinian-American Naomi Shihab Nye’s delight in the wonder of everyday objects, this program celebrates the cultures of today—and the way those cultures have become part of the American mosaic. Filmed at the Biennial Geraldine R. Dodge Poetry Festival.
