SUMMARY:Brynn Saito + Jacqueline Tchakalian
DESCRIPTION:Brynn Saito’s new book of poems is Power Made Us Swoon. Kazim Ali says\, “The questions this book asks of its mythological and actual heroes are questions I want to know the answers to. Her own are brave…but they are also beautiful. As the poet reassures herself\, ‘Your spirit is a songstress/ occupying the sea.’” Her first collection is The Palace of Contemplating Departure\, winner of the Benjamin Saltman Poetry Award from Red Hen Press and a finalist for the Northern California Book Award; she also co-authored the chapbook Bright Power\, Dark Peace with Traci Brimhall. Anthologized by both Helen Vendler and Ishmael Reed\, she has received a Kundiman Asian American Poetry Fellowship and the Poets 11 Award from the San Francisco Public Library. \nJacqueline Tchakalian’s debut book of poems is The Size of Our Bed. Charles Harper Webb says it “is powered by the pain of loss\, but leavened by careful craft and a heart that\, in being true to itself\, cannot be permanently cast down. I celebrate how these poems rise from the ashes of grief\, triumphant and full of life.” Trained as a visual artist\, she has come to poetry late in her life. That discovery caused a ten-year hiatus in her painting\, but it also resulted in this powerful book.

SUMMARY:Gears Turning Poetry : Moore Jr.\, Ferraz\, + Rades
DESCRIPTION:July’s reading is about community. We’ve got two poets who have come to the Bay from parts east and one home grown poet. All three of these great writers have helped to foster a mutually supportive\, dedicated and healthy poetry scene while being from and of very different places. \nLeroy F. Moore Jr. is a dedicated activist\, a solid community member and a fierce poet. His first book\, Black Kripple Delivers Poetry and Lyrics is the result of many years of writing and reading in the San Francisco Bay Area and around the world. His writing touches issues of poverty\, feminism\, disability and various forms of injustice. His work ranges from lyric to anthemic. \nJerry Ferraz has been a fixture in various poetry venues through the years. From Café Babar to Bird and Beckett this poet has written\, played his guitar\, curated and fostered other poets for decades. Come hear him here at Modern Times and also catch his regular reading series at Bird and Beckett in Glen Park. \nJane Rades holds a BFA from the San Francisco Art Institute. Her paintings and poems reveal the edges of vision in the everyday. Her books A Rosary of Poems\, Five Decades and Two Years in the Tarot\, Portrait of the Artist as a Young Fortuneteller as well as her deck of tarot cards all invite the reader/viewer to look deep. \nThis a Calle 24/Latino cultural heritage district\nSecond Sunday\, Paseo Artístico event
