We invite American actor Alfre Woodard to discuss Pulitzer Prize-winning Chicago poetGwendolyn Brooks’ “a song in the front yard.” In this poem, Brooks maps out the emotional life of her Black Chicago, taking us into crowded neighborhoods spaces and capturing the tone of a young striver. With her sympathetic but clear-eyed gaze, Brooks’ poetry brings to life the struggles and triumphs of ordinary people in her community.
