UPCOMING EVENTS
Politicking the Poem with Ellen Chang-Richardson
[ September Workshop Series - Rachel Thompson's Writerly Love ] Date: September 24, 2023 Time: 1:00 pm to 2:30 pm ET Are you concerned with the current events of the world? Do you want to criticize legislation? Support a social movement? Spotlight a forgotten moment in history? As an artform, poetry has a long history of political engagement. It is used to witness, process, comment, and critique; and has become a choice form of writerly intervention. This workshop will explore various forms of political poetry, from the comical to the critical. Come prepared to channel fire through your fingertips; and, if time permits, to share what you create. Please bring a news article, a snippet of legislation, or a piece of political writing you would like to intervene. |
