[Dr. Mahogany L. Browne] Is The Genre

Finding points of connection between Dr. Mahogany L. Browne's career as a journalist and poet.

Tim Barnes chats with poet Dr. Mahogany L. Browne about falling in and out of love with poetry, and her path toward becoming genre-less in her craft as a writer and creator.

Mahogany L. Browne, a Kennedy Center's Next 50 fellow, is a writer, playwright, organizer, & educator. Browne’s books include Vinyl Moon, Chlorine Sky, Black Girl Magic, and banned books Woke: A Young Poet’s Call to Justice and Woke Baby.
