We were very fortunate to have Louisiana Poet Laureate Mona Lisa Saloy present a lecture and workshop at South Regional Library this past weekend. She truly is a Louisiana treasure!
The award-winning author, folklorist, educator and scholar has been known and beloved for her work about Black Creole culture. Her collection of poems, “Second Line Home,” captures day-to-day New Orleans speech, family dynamics, and gives insight into the unique culture that the world loves. (text by Dillard University)
