How should we read Glissant today?
<p>In this episode, Caroline Fowler and former RAP fellow Sora Han revisit Édouard Glissant’s <em>Poetics of Relation </em>and his frequently invoked concept of “the right to opacity.” Beginning with Glissant’s dedication to the murdered Jamaican poet Michael Smith, they explore the relationship between poetry, sound, and performance, asking what becomes possible when we return to foundational texts with fresh eyes and ears.</p>
