About this listen
In honor of National Poetry Month, Cameron Mitchell is on the show this week to talk about the power of poetry and how it connects us to our humanity and our communities, and how it shapes our perspective on the world around us.
Why is poetry important? Do we fully appreciate poetry? Is the right emphasis being placed on poetry in schools? Join the conversation as we dive into verse, spoken word, and the world of rhyming thought with one of Nashville's premier poets, Cameron L. Mitchell.
