“Every poem is speaking to some greater outside,” write the award-winning poets Franny Choi and Danez Smith. In their Poetry Foundation-sponsored podcast, VS, Smith and Choi speak to poets about how poetry can both reflect and shape our world. Through humorous and insightful conversation, Choi and Smith reveal why so many of us turn to poetry to understand our lives. Joining them for a live taping of VS is Patricia Smith, a 2018 Pulitzer Prize finalist and four-time National Poetry Slam champion whose poetry and performances have been called “a testament to the power of words to change lives.”

This program is presented in partnership with the Poetry Foundation & Poetry Magazine.
