Writing with the Earth: An Anti-Imperialism Approach Towards Eco-Poetics

🚨NEW WORKSHOP🚨 Join us Tuesday, September 16 at 7 PM CST for Writing with the Earth: An Anti-Imperialism Approach Towards Eco-Poetics a virtual workshop led by Ashia Ajani. We are experiencing a renaissance of environmental writing, but little room is made to explore the relationship of war, occupation and environmental decline. We are living in the sixth mass extinction, largely due to the Western war machine. How are we to create art during times of decline? What is the role of the creative in opposition to ecological violence? 🌿 Through reading poems of Jayne Cortez, Fady Joudah, and Diana Khoi Nguyen in conversations with contemporary texts about environmental harms and their long lives, participants will walk away with material that addresses the intersections of environmental harm and war making in their writing. ✍️ Unable to attend the date? We can offer a 30-day access to a recording of the workshop with proof of receipt. Email [email protected] for more info! Tickets are $25 sliding scale for general admission. All proceeds go towards paying our presenters and helping the Press pay for operational expenses. Thank you for your contribution to help keep an indie intersectional press afloat! 🧡 Learn more and get tickets at the link in our bio 🔗
