A Sunday Kind of Love: Dan Vera & Steven Cordova (November 21, 2010)

This past Sunday, Letras Latinas joined Split This Rock Poetry Festival and Busboys and Poets as co-sponsors of a special edition of "A Sunday Kind of Love," a poetry reading series founded by Sarah Browning, and currently co-hosted by Katy Richy. Anyone wanting to take the pulse of Washington, D.C.'s poetry scene would need to attend a reading in this series, not only for its solid and diverse curation, but for the cool space the readings take place in: the Langston Room at Busboys and Poets on V & 14th in the U Street Corridor of the District.

Steven Cordova was joined by Dan Vera
for a memorable afternoon. Here are some pics:
