We’re closing out 30 Days of Queer Poets by celebrating one of the first poets to teach me that I didn’t hate poetry, I’d just never experienced slam poetry: Andrea Gibson (@andreagibson ).
Rest in love, Andrea. Your heart continues to change the world.

Day 28 of 30 Days of Queer Poets celebrates The Reverend Doctor Pauli Murray. A groundbreaking attorney who is best known for being one of the architects of the Civil Rights Movement, Pauli Murray saw poetry and activism as two sides of the same coin.
NOTE: Pauli Murray wrestled with gender, both their own and the broader concept of it. Because it’s impossible to say how Pauli would describe their own gender today, there is no one way to understand it or a universally agreed upon set of “correct” pronouns.
