Vincent Students Read Poetry at the Wallace House

Vincent Middle School 6th grade student poets explored the Wallace House and presented their poems to family and friends on May 19, 2022. They had participated in the Land as Persona: Many Paths to the Present curriculum created by the Alabama Writers’ Forum and Klein Arts & Culture. They wrote about Anderson Wallace, who had been enslaved at the House, the Creek Indians who lost their land, and the House itself, along with poems about themselves.
