Revival: Lost Southern Voices is a celebration of lost or underappreciated southern writers’ work. During this free and virtual literary festival invited authors and scholars discuss writers whose literary voices no longer receive the attention and reading they deserve.

On March 24 former U.S. Poet Laureate Natasha Trethewey gives a keynote address, followed by five additional sessions over several days. Register for the Trethewey event here:

On March 25th and 26th there will be presentations about William Gay, Ella Gerturde Clanton Thomas, Alice Walker, Padgett Powell, and many more.

On March 27, there will be an entire session devoted to James Baldwin’s work. To register for any or all of these events, go to the Revival: Lost Southern Voices Facebook page.
