YouTube Description
as posted by the channel“Poetry is a way to open up a door to possibilities, no matter who’s writing.” Bestselling author and Emmy-winning producer Kwame Alexander stops by to talk about his latest anthology of Black poets, called “This Is the Honey,” and how it is a way for any reader to explore the love and triumphs of a Black experience, not just tragedy. Alexander also gives Michael Kosta advice for raising daughters and reads a poem from his memoir, “Why Fathers Cry at Night.” #DailyShow #KwameAlexander #MichaelKosta
