A collection of lectures transcribed from the audio archives of
Naropa University's Summer Writing Program that represent a
continuing lineage of experimental literary movements. New Weathers
asks us to consider how poetics might embolden deeper engagements
with the world. Collected from the alternative education zone
founded by Anne Waldman and Allen Ginsberg with the aim of opening
up discourse and fostering political engagement, these texts invoke
issues of gender and race-based injustice, the global climate
crisis, and our possible extinction. They weave through our poetic
community, the conversations we are having, the issues we are
facing-our "new weathers" to posit strategies of resistance. List
