Together with the City Lit Festival and the Enoch Pratt Library, MICA will host Claudia Rankine, poet, essayist, playwright, and editor of several anthologies. She will read from her most recent work, Citizen: An American Lyric, a powerful rumination on race and America. After the reading, Rankine will participate in a Q&A session moderated by Marc Steiner. Rankine's appearance made possible in part by support from the Maryland Humanities Council and the National Endowment for the Humanities.
