Suzi F. Garcia in Conversation with Taylor Johnson

For guest editor Suzi F. Garcia, getting to know Taylor Johnson’s poetry was a highlight of 2021. Garcia says Johnson’s debut book, Inheritance, absolutely blew her away. The book is described as a “black sensorium, a chapel of color and sound that speaks to spaciousness, surveillance, identity, desire, and transcendence.” Fred Moten said about the book: “I’m singing. I’m singing with them, about them, because of them.” That’s also how Garcia felt reading Johnson’s new poem, “Hymn,” which you’ll hear Johnson read from today.
