Poet, essayist, and activist Dawn Lundy Martin once said, “Can poetry be a form of social change? I don’t know the answer to that. I do think art can have a social impact even if it may be difficult to see the effects of that impact, to asses or measure it.” It’s a question I’ve pondered myself, most recently when editing the following email interview with Natalia Molebatsi, the editor of Wild Imperfections: An Anthology Of Womanist Poems (hardcover), in which she discusses what inspired and influenced this collection.
