The O.B. Hardison Poetry Series at the Folger Shakespeare Library and Split This Rock co-sponsor this year's poetry reading in honor of the birthday of Martin Luther King Jr.  A diverse group of poets respond to the question of " Where Do We Go From Here: Chaos or Community?" King used this question as the title to his fourth and final book.  Featured poets: Kenneth Carroll, Niki Herd, and Myra Sklarew. An open-mic will follow.
