Poetry as Resistance: Crafting Your Revolutionary Voice

  • CultureWorks 1315 Walnut Street Philadelphia, PA, 19107 United States (map)

Informed by and committed to Black radical tradition, “Poetry as Resistance” is a transformative 3-week workshop that delves deep into the power of revolutionary literature. Participants will explore the works of influential poets and writers who have used their craft to advocate for justice, liberation, and change. Each week, we will focus on a different set of figures, examining their contributions and how their words continue to resonate today. Participants will engage in critical analysis, political discourse, and creative writing exercises designed to inspire their own poetic expressions of resistance. This workshop is open to writers of all backgrounds and experience levels. Classes are March 9, 16, and 23 from 12-2PM at CultureWorks. Applications close 2/23!
