[encore] 710: Acknowledgments by Nkosi Nkululeko

Today’s poem is Acknowledgments by Nkosi Nkululeko. The Slowdown is currently taking a break. We’ll be back soon with new episodes from a new host. This week, we’re going back into the archive to revisit Ada Limón’s time as host. Today’s episode was originally released on July 4, 2022. In this episode, former host Ada Limón writes… “Today’s poem is an exploration of shouting out ourselves and our community. I love how this poem makes room for complicated praise.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today. Every donation makes a difference: https://tinyurl.com/rjm4synp
