From discussions about being an inaugural poet to the passing of the bewildering inaugural baton to the amazing Amanda Gorman, to reading “Say This Isn’t the End” from The Atlantic, and the future role of the arts and humanities as a catalyst for healing. Words are the strings that bind us, connected us, especially during isolation.
