Why Poetry?

Poet Julie Fritz will illustrate why we need poetry to navigate these confusing times. Not an academic study of poetry, this course will take a deep dive into how we can use our experiences and the poet's words to better understand our daily questions: where are we, what does it mean, how can we navigate? She will read from her book, 'Twinings,' and other contemporary poets, all knocking at the same door.
