I spent the last day of this year's #EAAS2026 conference in Bologna attending a panel discussion on Teaching #AmericanStudies in Europe, a panel on US #DokuPoetry, the concluding keynote on the representational history of #CrispusAttucs & eating delicious pasta. Full brain + full stomach = ☺️

What a rich first full conference day we had at the #EAAS2026 in Bologna yesterday! I attended two great panels, the #EAASPoetryNetwork meeting, gave my own talk & then had the privilege of getting to listen to #JorieGraham discuss her new poetry collection 'Killing Spree'. Powerful & unsettling.
