This year's Writers and Readers series continued Saturday with a full day of programming at Cleveland Public Library's main branch. Attendees first gathered for an interactive poetry workshop led by Dr. Mary E. Weems titled "It's All About Race: Using Poetry to Resist Racism," before participating in a special craft Q&A with Man Booker Prize winning author Paul Beatty. Beatty, author of The Sellout, Slumberland, Tuff, and other novels, capped off the day by discussing his approach to the craft of writing alongside Oberlin professor Gillian Johns. Check out a few lovely photos from the day below, courtesy of Cleveland Public Library. Our Writers and Readers series with Cleveland Public Library continues Sat. 10/13 with journalist José Antonio Vargas, and concludes Sat. 11/10 with author Susan Orlean.
