We can think of no better way to celebrate Women's History Month than at this evening of poetry readings, where attendees will hear words from former Washington State Poet Laureate Claudia Castro Luna, Lake County Poet Laureate and Academy of American Poets fellow Georgina Marie Guardado, Somali language poet Hamdi Abdulle, and others. Led by Merna Ann Hecht, who founded the Stories of Arrival: Refugee & Immigrant Youth Voices poetry project at Foster High School in Tukwila, the event aims to "explore the divergent paths of women immigrants and refugees from around the world."
