Join us for readings and discussion that showcase the Washington Writers’ Publishing House’s new anthology, AMERICA’S FUTURE: poetry & prose in response to tomorrow.
AMERICA’S FUTURE features 164 bold, thought-provoking writers, with strong representation from writers across the press’s footprint (DC, Maryland, and Virginia) – writers from Baltimore to Roanoke, and writers with connections to the DMV from as far as California and Washington state. The anthology arrives at an urgent moment in our nation’s history, when many are anxiously questioning: What are the possibilities for the future? Some pieces turn to our past, reckoning with the wounds we still carry in today’s scars before questioning the future. Others turn their gaze forward, imagining the ways hope and reinvention can carve new paths.
