A 2021 MacArthur Fellow\, he is the Executive Director of Freedom Reads\, a not-for-profit organization that is radically transforming the access to literature in prisons through the installation of Freedom Libraries in prisons across this country. Betts’ memoir A Question of Freedom chronicles Betts’s years in prison as a youth\, reflecting back on his crime and looking ahead to how his experiences and the books he discovered while incarcerated would define him.  \n\n\n\nFor more than twenty-years\, he has used his poetry and essays to explore the world of prison and the effects of violence and incarceration on American society. The author of a memoir and three collections of poetry\, he has transformed his latest collection of poetry\, the American Book Award winning Felon\, into a solo theater show that explores the post incarceration experience and lingering consequences of a criminal record through poetry\, stories\, and engaging with the timeless and transcendental art of paper-making. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearn more about Reginald Dwayne Betts: WEBSITE / FACEBOOK / INSTAGRAM \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVIEW CALENDAR\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDETAILS\n\n\n\n\n4:30PM – 6:00pm at TACAW\n\n\n\nTHIs is an ages 14-18 workshop \n\n\n\nFree W/ RSVP
