The People Is Singular
Poems by Andy Young and Photographs by Salwa Rashad

The People Is Singular, by local poet Andy Young and Egyptian photographer Salwa Rashad, is a personal response to the Egyptian Revolution. Rashad’s vision includes everyday people—Muslims and Christians, young and old, the foregrounded and the peripheral. Her perspective is from inside the events as they unfolded. Andy Young, a New Orleans poet married to [...]

Curtain Optional
by Brad and Jim Richard

Mark Yakich is the author of Unrelated Individuals Forming a Group Waiting to Cross (National Poetry Series, Penguin 2004), and The Importance of Peeling Potatoes in [...]

Revacuation
by Brad Benischek

A post-Katrina graphic novel of sorts by New Orleans artist Brad Benischek. Part fantasy, part social commentary, Revacuation is a visual response to the tragic and absurd events of year one as they unfolded. Benischek’s raw, immediate style, lush imagination and quirky humor make Revacuation a wholly original addition to the post-K cultural discourse. Beginning [...]
