Dissident Poets: I AM NEDA

On Tuesday, February 16, PEN USA presented a special evening of poetry at the Hammer Museum in Westwood with work inspired by the events in Iran last summer. In association with Iranian-American poet Sholeh Wolpé, author of "I Am Neda," we collected dozens of poems by prominent poets in support of those who speak out for freedom around the world.
