Join us, this Wednesday, March 23rd, at 8pm! ASAL Join us, this Wednesday, March 23rd, at 8pm! ASALH is excited to partner with @pbsbooks to host Tracy K. Smith, as we explore Robert Frost's "Mending Wall." Beyond Frost’s poetics, the conversation will explore the poem's prescient theme: the role of walls in civil society—and the ways boundaries keep us apart, for better or worse.
