DESCRIPTION:Each month enjoy a range of talks from bestselling authors and
  thought leaders..\nhttps://louisburglibrary.libnet.info/event/10775433
X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>You&rsquo\;re invited to learn about the p
 ower of poetry with Elizabeth Acevedo! In this exciting author conversatio
 n and Q&amp\;A\, Acevedo will provide a short reading from her National Bo
 ok Award winning and New York Times bestselling novel-in-verse\, The Poet 
 X serving as the backdrop to this amazing chat!</p>\n<p>The Poet X is abou
 t an Afro-Latina heroine who tells her story with blazing words and powerf
 ul truth. Xiomara Batista feels unheard and unable to hide in her Harlem n
 eighborhood. Ever since her body grew into curves\, she has learned to let
  her fists and her fierceness do the talking. But Xiomara has plenty she w
 ants to say\, and she pours all her frustration and passion onto the pages
  of a leather notebook\, reciting the words to herself like prayers&mdash\
 ;especially after she catches feelings for a boy in her bio class named Am
 an\, who her family can never know about.</p>\n<p>With Mami&rsquo\;s deter
 mination to force her daughter to obey the laws of the church\, Xiomara un
 derstands that her thoughts are best kept to herself. So when she is invit
 ed to join her school&rsquo\;s slam poetry club\, she doesn&rsquo\;t know 
 how she could ever attend without her mami finding out. But she still can&
 rsquo\;t stop thinking about performing her poems. Because in the face of 
 a world that may not want to hear her\, Xiomara refuses to be silent.</p>\
