In “dreaming futures like bread in our children’s mouths” , as Audre Lorde said, we can also reach and root to the past- to the sick and disabled, queer and trans, Black and brown ancestors, blood and chosen, known and forgotten, who resisted in enormous and small, undetected ways, to make freedom, justice and safety happen in ways that allow us to be here. In this interactive writing workshop, we will have a chance to write about the chosen and blood ancestors whose stories carry us, to imagine and remember the safety and freedom- in all its blood, guts and complexity- that they knew. This workshop is open to all but centers Black, Indigenous and People of color, and is disabled, working class and femme as f*ck.
