Teaching Poetry in High School

One day my friend and small god, Albert Abanado, invited me and a few other teachers who also write poetry to his radio show, Flour City Yawp, on Rochester’s independent radio station, WAYO 104.3 FM.

Al writes, “Poet-teachers Marcy Gamzon, Reenah Golden, David Ruekberg, and George Steele swing by to talk about the difficult task of teaching poetry in high schools. We cover practices, the pressures of bureaucracy, and the economic disparities that complicate it all.”

Al’s write-up and the interview speak for themselves, so I’ll let you discover them by clicking this little link (scroll all the way down to listen; the interview starts at 3:30).
