Poetry and Social Justice Workshop with KB

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 2022 AT 2 PM – 4 PM EST

This workshop will explain and celebrate the relationship between social justice movements and poetry. In this workshop, you will explore the question of how to use art, specifically poetry, as a tool toward justice.
Led by KB, this workshops will be a generative and inspiring space for all participants to read, write, and intentionally create community. By exploring themes such as urgency, collaboration, and history, you will leave with new ideas on how to create the poems you want to create, and how to use poetry as a jumpstart to mobilization.
