In her interview with Anderson Cooper @TheAmandaGorman gave a shout out to @urbanwordnyc and @WriteGirlLA, two organizations that supported her practice as a poet! We are proud, in turn, to have supported BOTH of those wonderful programs. After-school poetry for all!

Are you a teacher who wants a “free” set of Metaphor Dice? Shoot this QR code (um, somehow) and be blessed by a #MetaphoricalAngel who has already purchased one for you! (It’s “free” because it actually costs $1 to sign up!)
