nA Louisville Poets Anthology edited by nLouisville native and acclaimed Horsepower author Joy Priest. n nConceived in the aftermath of city-wide nprotests in 2020, Once a City Said showcases the polyvocal communities nof Louisville, Kentucky, a city celebrated for its bourbon, basketball, and nhorseracing, but long fraught with racial injustice, police corruption, and nsocial unrest. nPriest ntakes the citys narrative out of the mouths of politicians, news anchors, and npolice chiefs, and puts it into the mouths of poets. What emerges is an nintimate report of a city misshapen by segregation, tourism, and ruptures in nthe public trust. Featuring thirty-seven acclaimed and emerging poets--including nMitchell L. H. Douglas, Erin Keane, Ryan Ridge, and Hannah L. Drake--Once a nCity Said archives the traditions and icons, the landmarks and spirits, the nportraits and memories of Derby City.n nThis publication is supported by individual donors who gave to the 2021 Fund for the Arts ArtsMatch campaign. Matching funds were made possible by Fund for the Arts in partnership with LG&E and KU Foundation. nn n nn
