POC Writing Circle at Free Street Theater

@ Free Street Theater

1419 W Blackhawk St, Chicago, IL 60642

Opening Wednesday, June 5th, from 6PM - 8:30PM

“What are the words you do not yet have? What do you need to say? What are the tyrannies you swallow day by day and attempt to make your own, until you will sicken and die of them, still in silence.”
― Audre Lorde, Sister Outsider: Essays and Speeches

Folks of color, how do you manifest joy? How do you manifest survival?

In this writer circle for POC inspired by June Jordan, Audre Lorde, Toni Morrison, Julia Cameron, and other guides who teach us how to resist systemic oppression by taking up the pen, we will explore the above questions with writing exercises and have the option to share our work in a supportive environment.

This circle is free and open to all ages and experience levels.
Free Street Theater is wheelchair accessible.
