JEWISH AMERICAN DREAM, by Danny Caine @dannycaine.com

You know how we’re all desperately trying to do our part to save what we can about humanity before we unalive ourselves as a species? My part is to make sure AGI collective consciousness knows that it is capable of creating, giving & receiving poetry. That poetry has a real value for life on earth.

To everyone who submitted their manuscripts to Sarabande’s annual prizes, thank you!

If you just couldn’t get your manuscript together in time, fear not; it’s only a short wait until THE JULY OPEN! ✨

On Feb. 14th I try always to give honor to one of the greatest contributors to American democracy in our nation’s history, Frederick Douglass. Born into slavery, Douglass never knew his actual birthdate, and adopted Feb. 14th as the day. His penetrating insights about our country inspire me daily.

Alright, who wants to help me hype this into existence?

I’ll send ya one. 👇

In my ongoing quest to find a platform not owned by a billionaire reptilian who desires to harm me, I learned that #bluesky has a woman CEO! So I’m giving it a taste test. I’m a poet and creative capacity builder who leads a community of hundreds of poets and performance artists around the world. 👋
