The project, titled "Executive Orders," was envisioned as a collaborative, freeform, "emergency" prose poem that would generate real-time responses to current events and the emerging American political landscape. The result was a poetic catalog of the people's executive orders-orders that are at turns serious, absurd, satirical, philosophical, critical, utopian, and so on. Executive Orders began as one community's effort to cope with and respond to the tidal wave of reactionary policies enacted or proclaimed during the years of Trump's first administration. As an index of historical happenings that charts events in rough chronological order (including the Muslim-country travel ban, Black Lives Matter protests, the Brett Kavanaugh hearings, the youth climate march, the January 6th riot at the US Capitol, and many other events), it stands as a documentary record of this historical period from the perspective of artists, writers, leftists, progressives, and other contributors, many of them anonymous. Executive Orders is also an experiment in crowdsourced collaborative making that tells a story about the ways we can-and can't-come together to form a collective that could have a voice in political deliberations.Prose poems, AmericanExecutive ordersProse poems, American.Executive orders.811.54Wilson Rachael Guynn1983-1836193Wilson Rachael Guynn1983-1836193Gorin Andrew Michael1834319MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911008482103321Executive Orders4414034UNINA
