Following Los Angeles poet and literary activist Jessica Ceballos to a market in Highland Park, the author, an independent publisher, experiences the future right now.
Jessica Ceballos is doing amazing work, using poetry to give her community an opportunity to speak and to be heard.
Powerful stuff.
My new post on the Literary Alchemy column. It’s a big shout out to my friend Jessica Ceballos, a fabulous poet, music maker, and activist.
The work she is doing with various readings should be lauded, but for me, the one that stands out is Poesia Para La Gente.
Please read and share and get to know Jessica. Remarkable and powerful work. She needs to be celebrated and supported by all of us in the literary community.
