Against the backdrop of the presidential election, poet Hanif Abdurraqib curated I Guess It Was My Destiny To Live So Long<\/em>,\u00a0a poetry, live music and storytelling event series that honored the legacy of poet June Jordan at the Brooklyn Academy of Music<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Part of BAM’s\u00a0Next Wave 2024 & Emerging Visions<\/a>\u00a0series,\u00a0Abdurraqib presented a slate of readings and performances from Nov.\u00a04 – 8 as a respite from the toxicity of the election cycle.<\/p>\n

Musicians and storytellers Jamila Woods, Tasha\u00a0and McKinley Dixon took the stage on Nov.\u00a06,\u00a0the day after Donald Trump was declared the next president of the United States. Inside the venue, there was a sense of shock and disbelief that hung in the air. Yet, the performances on stage felt like a salve for the wounds many were licking.<\/p>\n

Jamila Woods a poet, songwriter\u00a0and performing artist from the South Side of Chicago, whose influences include James Baldwin, Nikki Giovanni\u00a0and Sonia Sanchez, was bathed in sultry purple lighting and backed by a quartet of musicians as she soulfully sang songs from her discography. Bugs<\/em>, a song from her album Water Made Us<\/em>, was a highlight, which blends\u00a0her soulful vocals with poetry.<\/p>\n

She also performed SULA (Paperback)<\/em> a 2020 single based on Toni Morrison\u2019s 1974 novel of the same name, that honors both the author and her literary characters.<\/p>\n

The Chicago artist Tasha Viets-VanLear, singularly known as Tasha, stunned\u00a0in shocking blond hair while\u00a0on guitar. She was backed by a four-piece band and breezed through a setlist of songs including Nina<\/a><\/em>\u00a0and Michigan<\/a><\/em> that felt airy yet grounded on the large BAM Harvey stage.<\/p>\n

Stones In The Water<\/a><\/em>, a\u00a0night of poetry with Abdurraqib, Anis Mojgani<\/a>, Clint Smith<\/a>\u00a0and Sarah Kay<\/a>\u00a0on Nov.\u00a07, was like a gathering in a friend’s basement. The poets’ banter with the audience and each other highlighted a connective fiber developed from previous shows and some of the poets’\u00a0Midwerstern\u00a0upbringing.<\/p>\n

Smith\u2019s well-traveled terrain of fatherhood brought laughter and applause, with a performance that was a hybrid of poetry reading and stand-up comedy. Smith spoke about how he gets lauded for performing fatherly duties, while his wife rarely receives the same adulation for similar efforts.<\/p>\n

\u201cJust the other day I changed a dirty diaper and someone said praise Jesus,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Abdurraqib,\u00a0BAM’s curator at large and a MacArthur Genius Fellow, read four new poems and then a passage from his 2024 memoir There\u2019s Always This Year<\/a>, <\/em>a book about basketball, life\u00a0and growing up in Columbus, Ohio, in the 1990s.<\/p>\n

Mojgani, the 10th\u00a0poet laureate of Oregon, spoke in a high-register voice that felt sincere when he read To The Sea<\/em>,\u00a0a poem\u00a0centered\u00a0on humanness and the curious nature of how people cherish what we dislike about ourselves.<\/p>\n

Poet June Jordan\u2019s work was the animal spirit for the curation, with the series taking the name of her 2005 posthumously published poem. Her legacy of resilience was embraced by a cross-generational constellation of artists that came together across lines of race, class, gender, age\u00a0and geography.<\/p>\n

The co-star of any live performance at BAM Harvey Theater is the stage itself. Its expansive minimalistic measure of exposed masonry, deconstruction and timeless ruin is a power-packed visual. Combined with the atmospheric lighting, the performances were presented in an environment not often afforded to poets and spoken word artists.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery place is unique…to bring poetry to BAM at this scale feels good,” Abdurraqib said. “Scott Woods brought experimental music and poetry, and to offer the cultural capital of BAM to artists who might not have access to it, feels special.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
