In this timely and timeless collection, remarkable poets—both emerging and established—bring myriad traditions, styles, and vital perspectives to pressing questions, such as how poetry can help us to overcome obstacles to empowerment, compassion, social change, and educational opportunity. Drawing from the work of teachers, artists, and activists, Stronger Than Fear moves us into sudden and startling awareness. These poems arrive at their truths with insight and generosity, with courage and spirit. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62604275b69082006dee7f84/a4c4cdd6-1b29-40be-bf06-b63c014af73a/IMG_0376.jpg https://www.herminemeinhard.com/store/book monthly 0.5 2022-07-14 https://www.herminemeinhard.com/store/p/style-01-p5k87 monthly 0.5 2022-07-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62604275b69082006dee7f84/1650640356912-TE7DJ42FXGP6YNT4INC8/Bright+Turquoise+Umbrella.jpg Store - Bright Turquoise Umbrella
