An interactive writing workshop about the role of our imagination in sustaining social change. Participants will be invited to consider, “What kind of world do I want to live in?” Once that world is identified, “How can I make that world possible through my daily actions?” We will engage in a meditation and read short excerpts from Black feminists June Jordan, Mariame Kaba, and Barbara Ransby to gain clarity on what we are striving for.
