About this Event
MK Chavez
The Marsh Berkeley - Theatre
This workshop is for those who write toward justice, toward liberation, toward the excavation of personal and collective truth. There are as many ways to write politically as there are stories in the body, as many ways to resist as there are ways to breathe. Together, we’ll look at powerful poems that stir change—poems that incant, intervene, incite. Words here are both balm and blade, capable of unsettling, of bearing witness to the world as it is—and the world as it could be.
Structure & Engagement:
Writing Experiments: Exercises that guide us into the marrow of voice, purpose, and declaration. We’ll write through guided questions, through fragments, through the places where the personal meets the political. These experiments are meant to move us closer to the heart of our own truths while pushing against the world as it is.
Small Group Discussions: A space to dig into how your work intersects with activism, how it leans into social change, how it sings and bites.
Reading Work Aloud: An open space to share to experience how your words lift and land.
