Workshop Description

One 4-hour session: Saturday 2/8 (1-5pm Eastern / 10am-2pm Pacific)

“Participants begin with silent worship. The leaders then describe the pattern of activities. Each person introduces themselves briefly and describes what is significant to their spirit at the moment. We then mute and spend roughly half an hour writing. We then take turns sharing our writing aloud, and receive from participants specific kinds of non-academic feedback that will be explained by the leaders. A goal is to develop trusting relationships across racial barriers, and learn how writing our stories and poems help bring about Healing, Humanity, Decolonization, Solidarity, Liberation and Ubuntu story -writing.

Stories and strategies aiding in the elimination of oppression, the advancement of liberation, self determination, conflict, transformation, resolution, reparations, land-back and peace-making especially welcomed.

You are invited to participate in a virtual writing retreat. The retreat will focus on storytelling for a memorable experience that may offer new voice in literature.

Come and write or tell a story/experience that you feel will benefit others to live in a more just, equitable and inclusive world.

If you accept this wonderful invitation to build a community around healing and sharing your voice a happier multi-real literature could emerge.
just register while space is available. I imagine literature to share and maybe share for publication possibilities.

The 3-hour workshop will be structured with an opportunity to hear stories, reading from the book Beyond equity and inclusion in conflict resolution, do introductions, check ins, including a sharing of what attracted you to this space, and then to hear stories from a panel. The majority of time we will write together, then share our writings if desired.

As we share there is an opportunity to offer wishes, wonderings, wanderings appreciation if invited by the authors.

Leader Experience

Leading sessions at FGC, in higher educational settings and in personal life settings. We have collaborated together during the past four year, and meeting with a growing interracial community of writers and artists online. We have honed our sensibilities to the present needs of attenders and established comfort and trust among participants.
