In Voices of Woodlawn, four poets give voice to the erased lives of slaves at Woodlawn, a Fairfax, Virginia plantation that is now a historic estate.

Maryland Poets Diane Wilbon Parks, Patrick Washington, Sylvia Dianne “Ladi Di” Beverly and Hiram Larew confront the sadness, anger, injustice and confusion of such a past and its haunting legacy. They are joined by poet and harmonica player, Cliff Bernier, in a powerfully unsettling program of witness.
