U.S. Poet Laureate Joy Harjo delivered Transylvania University\u2019s 2022 William R. Kenan Jr. Lecture on March 23.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Harjo is an internationally known, award-winning poet, writer and performer of the Mvskoke Nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFor decades she has been a poet with the courage and the authority to directly engage the heartbreaking history of indigenous people in this country,\u201d Transylvania professor Zo\u00e9 Strecker said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The winner of numerous writing awards, Harjo<\/a> is the author of a memoir and nine books of poetry, including the acclaimed \u201cAn American Sunrise.\u201d She earned an MFA at the Iowa Writ\u00aders\u2019 Work\u00adshop and has taught at universities across the country and performed music and poetry internationally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Harjo, who lives in Tul\u00adsa, Oklahoma, also plays saxophone and flute with the Arrow Dynam\u00adics Band, performing for audiences around the world. In 2009, she won a Native American Music Award for Best Female Artist of the year. Harjo also has published award-winning children\u2019s books and screenplays, among other works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cShe writes with the depth and beauty of her ancestral voice, the voice of the \u2018Old Ones,\u2019 as she frequently calls them,\u201d Strecker said. \u201cAnd yet, she dares to explore her own voice using the language of her ancestors\u2019 oppressors.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kenan Lectures are among Transylvania\u2019s biggest events each year, having drawn to campus such notables as Kurt Vonnegut, Salman Rushdie, Elie Wiesel and Beverly Sills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Harjo’s talk was also part of the school’s Creative Intelligence series<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
