This workshop asks how a story shifts when it changes hands, looking at poetry that explores a single story from different vantage points. We will interrogate how institutional, commercial, academic, and family historians view and change the past through retelling. We will study poets who cross borders, or who have had borders imposed upon them. This would be a good workshop for anyone aware of the distance between ink on a historian’s ledger and migration stories told under moonlight.

This class is a one-day craft class on Sunday, April 28th from 2:00 PM–4:30 PM ET. This craft class is open to all writers of color.
