Lamarra Haynes began
developing her poetic voice last year when her professor, Kaia Sand, gave her
the space to express her coursework through a poetic lens. Lamarra’s poems
generally emerge from political analysis and then she attempts to make the
political personal; she attempts to understand how big lofty political
decisions have affected her own life. Her poem “#FreddieGray” is published in
the academic journal Capitalism Nature Socialism.
