A conversation between Geneffa Jahan and the Youth Poet Laureates of Watsonville, Rachel Huerta and Eva Sophia Martinez Rodriguez, appointed to serve a two-year term from 2023 – 2025. The Watsonville Public Library created this position to recognize a youth under the age of twenty for their literary achievements with a passion for promoting awareness of poetry and whose work demonstrates a commitment to social justice, equity, and diversity. In this hour, the teens share their journey, talk about their craft, and recite poems that showcase their individual styles.
