[CASL-L] African American Read In

[Janet Kenney]

I host a "read-in" every year.  It's basically a poetry slam, with an
emphasis on the writings of African-Americans.  The school's Jazz combo
plays jazz standards during class change times.  I usually hold it the
Friday before the long President's Day Weekend!
