To this end, she completed An Oral History of Poetry in Grand Rapids, which was donated to the Grand Rapids Public Library's Archives in 2024. This project was made possible through her many poetry connections forged from years of community service, including coordinating the time-honored, prestigious Dyer-Ives Poetry Competition for 14 years. She’s a longtime poetry event coordinator and has been mixing with local poets since the 1990s. As co-founder and co-president of The Grand River Poetry Collective, this current public endeavor is meant to publish Grand Rapids poets and foster a poetry culture where we all uplift each other. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65677fd326c72933b5e5723f/64ed882a-07f4-4612-b5f0-7989b8fc86e5/Shayna+Marie News - Meet the Hosts and Workshop Presenters of GR Lit Fest’s GR Poetry... is LIT! - Shayna "Akanke" Marie Shayna "Akanke" Marie is a thought-provoking writer, passionate poet, and community organizer based in Grand Rapids, Michigan whose voice is a raw, and powerful call for narrative justice and community unity.

Through poetry, Shayna bridges racial and generational differences, and she has a passion for youth advocacy and enhancing student outcomes and opportunities by empowering students to share their stories with the world. Shayna is currently serving as the Lead Teaching Artist for The Diatribe, an organization that uses restorative art to disrupt historical systems of oppression.

Robinson’s book, A City Within A City: the Black Freedom Struggle in Grand Rapids. Shayna believes that the path toward our collective future lies in understanding the issues that have shaped our past. Through this understanding, Shayna has developed several multimedia projects that uplift narrative justice and unpack historical discrimination including “The Oral History of South High” and “West Michigan (Not So) Nice. In 2022, Shayna was honored to be the recipient of Grand Rapids Area Black Businesses’ “Young Black & Gifted Award.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65677fd326c72933b5e5723f/4fca89ea-5793-44d7-84f3-c5a48e30db3e/IMG_4907.jpeg News - Meet the Hosts and Workshop Presenters of GR Lit Fest’s GR Poetry... is LIT! - Neil Kaufman Neil Kaufman is an award-winning poet passionate about poetry and mental health and how the 2 interweave.

Open Mic at The Lit - Who Do You Love? Our next event in our Poetry Reading Series at The Lit is something special: we’ve invited Artsauce to accompany poets live for a set—an experiment we’re excited to invite poets to explore. February feels like the right moment for all of us to share some love with a themed open mic, so we’re skipping featured readers this month. Features return in March. We’re planning longer sets, and we encourage you to think about music—think about who (or what) you love, and what you mean by that. Thu, Feb 12 • 5:30–7:30 (break midway) • The Lit, 61 Sheldon • Free and open to the public.
