The essay examines the strategies at work in the 1980s and 1990s poetry of African American poet, June Jordan, as part of Jordan's life-long aesthetic and political project of articulating an open place of enunciation. Poetic forms, poetic voice, poetic objects and addressees are analyzed in this frame in order to emphasize Jordan's efforts toward the creation of poetry as a medium for "telling the truth".
