Former U.S. Poet Laureate Juan Felipe Herrera presents his new poetry collection Every Day We Get More Illegal, a trenchant and compassionate book filled with hope from the nation’s first Latino Poet Laureate.
Presented in conjunction with the AWM’s special exhibit My America: Immigrant and Refugee Writers Today, this program is part of the Jeanne M. & John W. Rowe program series, a series of conversations with leading contemporary writers about their latest work and their thoughts on themes of identity, home, belonging and the meaning of what it is to be American.
