Nikki Giovanni is one of the greatest living poets in the world and she is a joy to be around. She’s funny, smart, humble, and very cool. She’s the best dinner guest imaginable. In honor of Black History Month, and since she’s recently announced her retirement from teaching let’s throwback to this hour plus conversation from 2017 about what makes a great poem, the impact of watching domestic violence in her childhood home, how she rebounded from a health scare by getting onstage, how she learned to cry and why she feels she needs to go into outer space.

Nikole Hannah-Jones is the creator of the 1619 project which explains how America is still impacted by the legacy of slavery. It is not past, we are, today, in a slaveocracy. The 1619 project is a podcast, an ongoing series of articles and essays that are being taught in schools, and a series of books and now a show on Hulu. She is a verified genius, the recipient of a MacArthur grant, and I could feel her genius as I spoke to her. She is a person who is toweringly influential in that her ideas have changed my thinking on many issues and, with the 1619 project, aims to shape the way many people see the relationship between America and slavery.
