Bonus: Radical Reversal in Birmingham II

Radical Reversal is a program that installs performance and recording spaces in detention centers and correctional facilities where they conduct poetry workshops, seminars in music and music production, readings, and performances. Following up on a bonus episode from April 2023, Radical Reversal co-founder Randall Horton introduces us to poetry and music from five youth writers and performers at Jefferson County Youth Detention Center in Birmingham, Alabama. To watch readings by poets whose work engages with the crisis of mass incarceration in the US, check out Voca for recordings from the Poetry Center's Art for Justice series.Full transcripts of every episode are available on Buzzsprout. Look for the transcript tab under each episode.Voca is now fully captioned, with interactive transcripts and captions available for all readings!
