How do we cherish the day when empire tries to make us all kings of sorrow? This generative writing workshop invites participants to embrace vulnerability in service to being by each other’s sides. Let the music of Sade alchemize rage into reminders of ways we can hang on to our love for one another through every attack on each kiss of life.
