Each series is a collection of poems dedicated to a critical issue of our time and published here on the Moving Parts Press website. Some poems are interpreted as digital broadsides to print out, or post and share freely. Developments in the dissemination of digitized books, broadsides, prints, and videos, shared online and reproduced freely, can send a critical call to action in these difficult times.
