War Poetry as Journalism

Join us for an evening with James Adams, a celebrated writer whose first poetry collection, Noble Savage, was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize. Adams writes about his frequent travels to Africa and his work with refugees in conflict zones. He was lead editor of several volumes of poetry about war and is currently lead editor of Elusions: Refugee Poems. Adams was a 2015 Fulbright Specialist Scholar, and traveled to Namibia to work with the High Court of Namibia on reforms to promote greater access to justice.
