Due to unforeseen circumstances, this Friday's live Zoom event portion of our birthday celebration for Gwendolyn Brooks has been cancelled. However, we hope you will still join us in honoring Ms. Brooks by tuning in to RBML's social media for several videos we'll be posting over her birthday weekend! Please check out our YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwBq1Op0zukCyMjW2ccy6og/videos for this and other recent online programming. You'll learn about the writings and impact of our former Illinois Poet Laureate through readings of her work and performances in her honor.
