POEMS OF RESISTANCE, POEMS OF HOPE
Without hope, resistance has no
objective. The media is saturated with
uncareful language. In poetry, we find
precision, peculiarity, and potential.
Poems strive less for answers than
enliven our questions. The poets in
Poems of Resistance, Poems of Hope,
take up these questions with an eye
for what’s possible. These poems break
open the human spirit, and remind us
that through language, community, and
art, the endeavor for empathy is not
lost. Resistance and hope are alive, in
the world, and on the page.
Poets included: Joy Harjo, Jericho Brown,
Yusef Komunyakaa, Louise Gluck, Richard
Blanco, Arthur Sze, Ada Limón, Eve. L

Thanks to our publishing partners Penguin Random House, HarperCollins,
Algonquin, and TOR/FORGE we are able to provide FREE Independent Bookstore
Day bookmarks to all stores!
Order as many as you think your store(s) can give out in April—from 500 to 15,000
(multiples of 500 only). All stores participating in Bookstore Day must agree to
give out the IBD bookmarks in place of or in addition to their own bookmarks
with every transaction for the month of April. It’s a great way to remind your
customers about IBD!
Each bookmark has a small space, 2” x 1”, for your store’s stamp or sticker. Your
bookmarks will be shipped by the ABA and will arrive with your March ABA RED
BOX. Please keep an eye out for it.
