Poetry. Caribbean Studies. Latinx Studies. African & African American Studies. "There is a raw urgency to these poems within the 'protocol' set, the 'name' of each echoes marine distress-calling, a plea to humanity; recounting the travails during the super-storms Irma and Maria...the unprecedented level of destruction that the storms wrought on the poet's home island of St. Martin, and on neighboring Caribbean countries and territories. This poetry is about prevailing over adversity and about resiliency to disaster."--Margaret Matz, Il Tolomeo (Vol. 20), Italy
