Word Up Community Bookshop: An Interactive Poetics Writing Workshop with Noel Quiñones. This workshop will invite participants to create a dynamic poetic form that requires the reader to participate in the poem. Inspired by my Noel's debut poetry collection, "Orange", which you can preorder or get a copy at the event.
Word Up welcomes mental health advocate and storyteller Leah 수진 Kim to discuss her new book, Mom, Unfiltered: Maternal Mental Health and Finding Freedom Through Motherhood, a deeply personal examination of the dire state of our maternal and postpartum care for mothers. In conversation with Kim will be Frederick Joseph, author of This Thing of Ours and Patriarchy Blues: Reflections on Manhood.
