Gonzaga Poets Publish Collection in Response to Slavery Research Project

In response to the student-led research project delving into the Jesuits history with slavery, Gonzaga’s poets have published a new collection of work. Called GARDEN: Gonzaga Poets Respond to the Slavery Research Project, the book includes poems by 12 students and 5 faculty members.

In the introduction to the book, co-editors Joseph Fondriest '19 and Marcus Steakhouse '19 wrote, “We hope this collection of poems, a student-teacher collaborative effort, will honor Gabriel, Isaiah, and all enslaved people who helped make Gonzaga the school we love today. We also hope these poems will move us all to learn more and to act in support of racial justice in our country.”
