Guided by Porsha, delve into the heart of Sankofa (looking back to move forward) in this intimate workshop. Explore personal/collective memory, reclaim obscured narratives, and wield poetry as a tool for healing and future-building. Discover how intersectional identities enrich the tapestry of our stories. Prepare to write and reflect.
