Frank X Walker discusses and signs Turn Me Loose: The Unghosting of Medgar Evers

Poems take on the voices of Evers’s widow, Myrlie; his brother, Charles; his assassin, Byron De La Beckwith; and each of De La Beckwith’s two wives. Except for the book’s title, Turn Me Loose, which were his final words, Evers remains in this collection silent.
