I love you brother

Its great

This is soooo nice

Roland Flint was my dear teacher. I'm so happy you have shared and brought me back to his work, which I've always loved.

Those who say her stories are old fashioned might be forgetting that Ireland is still predominantly rural. As Terence Winch says here, the word those people are looking for is ‘timeless’.

happy birthday🎂Prof. Seamus Heaney

I need to read this woman, very interesting perspective.

Interesting.

Thank you for such an emotional and insightful analysis of Taylor Mali's poem - exactly the kind of response his delightful poetry deserves. I'll definitely share your video with my students.

R.I.P. Michael

I am an attempted writer and when I was sharing my words with a respected friend. She read one of my stories and said to me that she admired me for being so brave to put my thoughts out for everyone to de. I believe you are a brave person. Braver than me. :-)

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Great interviewer, love them both

Michael Coady is such a gift... and such a loss to the literary world. His explanation, 9 minutes in, of how the tragic, mysterious story of his great-grandfather filtered down through his grandfather, father, and its impact on his own life, is only partial, but nonetheless riveting. "The Use Of Memory" appears in "All Souls" from 1997. VERY visual/visceral must-read stories and poems. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam ❤

Wonderful ❤

This book "Are You Somebody?" was something I found on a shelf inside of a homeless shelter and I guess I would probably have to say the world is full of nobodies. Imagine that what made her "somebody" appears to be her career. My last job I worked in a call center and all the money I saved for the last five years my mother has managed to find a way to waste it all.

Marvelous Marvelous interview and performance

TODA!

She was very genuine upfront and honest. The scope of her intelligence is remarkable.

At least you pronounce her name correctly. So many so-called authorities here mispronounce her surname and it drives me nuts.

I'm not a poet but I've written hundreds of songs that have come to nothing. This astonishing lady has left a legacy that anyone would be proud of. A life well-lived.

I love that the interviewer starts with the dedication to Mr. Jones’ mother. Something that could so easily have gone unnoticed.

I’d like to thank you greatly for keeping this golden interview posted,

Oh, what a treasure she is/was - beautiful smile - so unaffected and intelligent. What a loss. She's right, the English don't love us but we pretend they do.

Thank you, Mr. Baraka. Continued to teach. Until we (as a people) circle the wagons and promote positive and truthful content, the powers that be will continue to promote negative stereotypes and modern-day minstrels. And pay others who look like us a lot of money to promote foolishness. Just look around you!

I had the pleasure of working with Stanley and his darling Elise Asher as a carpenter in NY back in the 70's and 80's. A kinder, more generous, and curious soul I've rarely met in the intervening years. I've had the honor of reciting Stanley's "The Long Boat" at more than one send off to friends and family members. It's a remarkable and indelible song about life and its inevitable end. Thank you, Stanley Kunitz.

I met Ms. Brooks while in the stacks at Chicago State University's library in the mid 90s....she touched my soul!

I like this poet. I have read her, but this interview helped us know her. She is real.

Two brilliant poets. Thank you. ❤

The way she talks about Gay Men and Women is what unconscious Bisexual priveledge and ignorance looks like

I met Ms. Brooks before a reading she gave at Elmhurst (IL) College in 1992. She was a sharp, down to earth person who gave an energetic reading, despite being almost 80 years old at the time. The meeting was a pleasure, as well as a privilege, for me. She is one of the reasons I became a poet, myself.

Straight up my teacher made me watch (kinda) this and I most likely (100 percent) wont finish because the rough draft is due tonight but if she watches this I say Hi >:)

I was so very fortunate to meet Sekou and read with him, what an amazing, inspiring, generous talent. His multi media work was astounding

I heard her last interview with Marion Finucane on RTE radio live and it was heartbreaking to hear how sad she felt after finding out about her terminal illness. I have a very slow acting terminal illness (diagnosed in 2008) thankfully it has not affected my daily life too much yet so I just keep trucking on and try not to think about it too much.

My mother was reared the same as you. She's 90 now and I'm looking after her to make sure her life is better on the way out than it was in the way in. X

Forche' is one of the most important poets over the past fifty years.
