Inauguration 2013: How was Obama's speech? Two writers discuss

Tuesday at 10 a.m., staff writer Hector Tobar and I will do a live video chat about President Obama's presidential inauguration from a literary point of view. Last week, Tobar wrote about the lessons Obama might draw from previous inaugural speeches; we'll talk about how we thought he did, and also discuss Richard Blanco's commemorative poem.
