#epicenter: heart matters
#epicenter, inspired by the results of the U.S.A. November 2016 elections, channels pain and struggle laced with hope and courage. Dr. Laura Morgan Roberts, organizational psychologist, infuses her poetry with global experiences of diversity and leadership. Her words paint images of the timeless quest for inclusion, justice and social transformation among silenced and marginalized voices. A thought leader in the areas of authenticity, relationship building, and human development, Dr. Laura bares her soul in her poetry - a departure from twenty years of publishing highly visible academic research articles. Frustrated with the lack of progress with engaging divisive rhetoric through logic, reason and rationality, Dr. Laura encourages thought leaders to use the arts (poetry, music, visual, etc.) to incorporate "heart matters" into civil discourse, higher education, business training and development, and faith-based institutions.

Dr. Morgan Roberts final piece in this collection, titled “Daybreak,” is the most powerful and empowering modern poem from this decade that I’ve had the opportunity to interact with through reading, pondering, rereading, and then pondering some more. Its sociopolitical relevancy is on point. Moreover, the empathy it inspires may not so subtly force one to shift their paradigm.
