Giới thiệu về sự kiện
As poets, we know that our lived experiences shape the way we write and how we move through the world and our classrooms. At California Poets in the Schools, we seek to deepen our relationship to young people’s self-empowerment through writing. In doing so we are able to cultivate connection, awareness, and empathy while creating pathways to hope. In this interactive workshop series, we’ll reflect on these tangible benefits of experiencing poetry with young people through a racial justice lens. Together, we will share and practice new writing tools for engaging a diverse student body and cultivate a sense of belonging among our students and with each other.
