In the Coded Language of this Mortal Tongue - Rajnii Eddins Reading                       Library Lawn

Poet, activist, teacher, and artist, Rajnii Eddins reads from his new poetry collection, In the Coded Language of the Mother Tongue.

Reuben Jackson Poet/ Archivist calls Rajnii Eddins’ In The Coded Language Of This Mortal Tongue a "consistently moving, entrancing, and melodic collection of poems which address what fellow poet Amiri Baraka called “the changing same”."

Originally from Seattle Washington, Spoken Word Poet/Emcee and Teaching Artist Rajnii Eddins has been engaging diverse community audiences for over 27 years. He was the youngest member of the Afrikan American Writers Alliance at age 11 and has been actively sharing with youth and community in Vermont since 2010.  His highly-acclaimed first book of poetry is Their Names Are Mine.
