“For many of you, this will be your first introduction to Fusion and to many of these writers. We have made a careful effort to update their contributor’s notes, so you can find their work published before and since their appearance in Fusion. I encourage you to take your time and, while you read these beautiful poems, consider the global conversation that is inherent in their writing. There is something extremely important about the celebration of the series at this time. Here, we are honoring the power of mutual respect among artists across cultures and nations. Here, our poems are legislating a certain grace and care that comes through the power of the empathetic imagination.”
—from Kwame Dawes’ Foreword to the issue
