On today's episode we talk with poet, author, activist, and attorney Reginald Dwayne Betts (Felon). In the conversation we explore the ways we police and punish ourselves and the people around us, the conditions of worthiness, and the balance between form and word choice in poetry. Dwayne also shares about his nonprofit, Million Book Project, and the work they do to bring books into prisons.Click here to be part of The Stacks fundraiser for Million Book Project. The Stacks Book Club selection for April is The Tradition by Jericho Brown, we will discuss the book with Reginald Dwayne Betts on Wednesday April 7th.You can find links to everything we discuss on today's show on The Stacks' Website: https://thestackspodcast.com/2021/04/07/ep-158-reginald-dwayne-bettsSUPPORT THE STACKSJoin The Stacks Pack on PatreonHello Fresh - go to hellorfresh.com/stacks12 and use code STACKS12 for 12 free meals including free shipping.Libro.FM - get two audiobooks for the price of one when you use code THESTACKS at checkout.Purchasing books through
