Poet-activist River Smith’s collection Like She Is In Him: Selected Work from A Troublemaking Eco- feminist Punk brings together a cornucopia of diverse poems and essays, presenting the public with a window into the author’s storied life and worldview.

River Smith challenges all expectations, bringing an activist’s fire and performance poet’s accessibility to Like She Is In Him, making this collection a public cry above the din of oppression clouding the world today. Both a gorgeous literary work and a blueprint for resistance, this selection is an essential introduction to Smith’s work and a primer on the political power of the poetic voice.

From troublemaking punk to widely published poet, social justice educator and feminist commentator, River Smith is an experienced spoken word artist who has performed his work, with and without accompaniment, in venues across the country.
