A Passion for Poetry with Jackson Crawford

Dr. ‪@JacksonCrawford‬ and I share our love of poetry in modern and ancient languages, discussing how these experiences have affected our outlook, and how we hope to share our passion for literature and languages on our channels. We also discuss why Norse culture has become so popular in the past two decades.
