What is Speak Up?
Speak Up YYC is a budding literary community in Calgary AB dedicated to expression; of speaking up, speaking out and speaking truth to power.
Speak Up YYC is hosted by MelVee X, a multidisciplinary artist with a decade of professional practice. I am committed to cultivating spaces dedicated to unapologetic storytelling from voices that have been historically silenced - Black, Indigenous and POC voices, LGBTQ+ voices and neurodivergent voices.
