ALL THAT YOU TOUCH / YOU CHANGE Poetry Festival
POETIC JUSTICE INSTITUTE PRESENTS
“ALL THAT YOU TOUCH /
YOU CHANGE /
ALL THAT YOU CHANGE /
CHANGES YOU”
~ OCTAVIA BUTLER
A VIRTUAL POETRY FESTIVAL
FOR DREAMERS AND DOERS
LET’S STAND TOGETHER
FOR….
DELICACY, REAL-TIME WRITING, FIERCENESS, MEDITATION, VULNERABILITY, QUESTIONS, REST, MYSTERY, FELLOWSHIP, COLLECTIVE COURAGE
In answer to these extraordinary and changing times, Poet Guides will lead you in an offering (a meditation, a reading or a revelation) and then in a writing prompt. The audience will respond in real-time writing. We’ll write and create and listen together as an act of communal power. Let’s be together in deep celebration.
Featured Poet Guides: José Felipe Alvergue, Tamiko Beyer, Chen Chen, S. Brook Corfman, Carolyn Forché, Aracelis Girmay
CART will be provided.
In Support of Demos, A dynamic “think-and-do” tank that powers the movement for a just, inclusive, multiracial democracy.
Co-Sponsored by: Fordham College at Lincoln Center Dean’s Office, The Axe Houghton Foundation, Cave Canem and Kundiman.
