November 8 marks one year since Donald Trump won the US presidency. One year later, Gallup puts the President's approval rating at 33%, an all-time low. The Poetic Address to the Nation on March 11, 2017 was an event that brought together poets to speak out and against the current administration. The event featured poets Cam Awkward, Guillermo Gomez Pea, Michelle Mush Lee, Chinaka Hodge, and many others to share pieces from immigration, to trans violence, to activism. Making Contact is broadcasting an abridged version of the event produced by the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts and the U.S. Department of Arts and Culture.
