People's State of the Union

This year, we asked what it might look like to transform our grief and rage into justice. We are honored to present you with this year’s Poetic Address to the Nation, crafted by Emmy Pérez, 2022 USA Fellow & 2020 Texas Poet Laureate. Pérez draws upon her visit to Uvalde last month in the days after the massacre to memorialize the victims, and to call for change.
