The house still asleep. On a pillow, her black hair Tangled as seaweed. How will you know when others Rise to shadow the sidewalk?

Spring 2021
“At the intersection of black and white, fish and snakes, rural and city, poor and more poor, public and private, A Boy Named Boy names what it means to live out loud, Black, shamelessly declaring restorative witness as an act of resistance and the unflinching utterance of endurance. This memoir of race and survival croons and scrutinizes a sultry but sharp southern manner.” Jaki Shelton Green, North Carolina Poet Laureate and author of Feeding the Light

The Big Pause (Part Two)
Drawing through the Pandemic by Line Maj Skuldbøl
“The Big Pause began as an act of catharsis in a time of crisis. Working on The Big Pause during my isolation made me less lonely; I felt I was conversing with others through my work. The process reminded me that art can create a space where we can meet and be known, in all our sorrow and longing and joy.”
—Line Maj Skuldbøl
