Kimberly Blaeser reads from Ancient Light (2024), her sixth poetry collection, which reflects on the effects of colonization and searches for ways that all people can survive, heal, and thrive. Blaeser closes with several poems from an earlier collection, Copper Yearning (2019), as well as one uncollected poem. Throughout, major themes include water, kinship, witnessing to loss, and solidarity in community.
