"Poetry Is Not A Luxury," It's a Liberation Technology ⚡️🖋️
Friday. March 28th. You're invited! 💌
Hey people! Hope that you are savoring moments of joy whenever and wherever you are able to find them — especially given the utterly heinous chaos we’re witnessing on a day-to-day basis. 🙃
In the midst of all this bizarre-ness, I’m working to find my grounding, searching for ways to harness light and share it with our communities. Which is why I’m dropping by your inbox right now.
💌 Join us for Poetry as a Liberation Technology, a presentation//envisioned manifesto!
This Friday, March 28th @ 4pm CST / 5pm EST, I’ll be hosting an event I’ve been dreaming and ruminating about for almost a year now about the power of Poetry as a tool, a vessel, and an electrifier of liberation.
Language melds and transforms ourselves, each other, and our futures. What happens when we recognize poetry as an intricate system of words for creation?
I’ve been a Poet for close to 20 years now (been writing lines since I was 5), so this event is truly an emblem of my lifelong learnings about how incredible, how magical, and revolutionary language can be.
(I also shared this on my personal newsletter, and thought that fellow storytellers, writers, and artists out there in the TALMBAT Community should know about it too! 😊)
You can register to attend here! Hope to see you there! 🤎
(P.S. Stay tuned for Phase III of the Pathways to Liberation Project coming soon!)
