Janet I Janet I (Jun 09 2021 6:11PM) : You have done something powerful here, created a space for voices and artists in a time when the silence and isolation could at times feel deadly. This is a tribute to what is possible, to strength and the power of voice.

Jun 9

Layla H Layla H (Jun 09 2021 9:42PM) : Yes, it will be publicized on our Instagram and newsletter, as well as our other socials. However, Instagram is our main platform to find out more about such events. I would definitely love to speak to them about the workshops!

Janet I Janet I (Jun 09 2021 6:14PM) : I am interested in what your future projects may look like. The teen leadership and director positions provide such a strong backbone to this project. I think you are much more, and looking more like an organization fostering a movement.

Jun 9

Layla H Layla H (Jun 09 2021 9:44PM) : Thank you so much! We definitely emphasize teens helping other teens improve their skills so our director positions definitely are the backbone. Hopefully, educators like you can be involved in our movement too!

Janet I Janet I (Jun 09 2021 6:17PM) : “Wear what makes you feel sane and beautiful, change your appearance, DO TI! Love is happiness, Happiness is love.” more

As we come back into the light and out into the world this rings true. SO many months teaching behind a screen has put me in a rut of workout pants and slippers. It is the attitude of bringing a rainbow into the light and I am so excited to see how people will bring joy once we can all come back together

Ian S Ian S (Jun 09 2021 9:47PM) : I love the way you pointed out how the theme of pride overlaps with the notion of reopening, post-pandemic. A time of renewal, hopefully!

Nickaylia Anderson's poem 0

Jun 9

Kiran C Kiran C (Jun 09 2021 9:46PM) : "Pride in my nation is not a problem... / But what also follows me? / In my community where homophobia / And prejudice is very common." more

I can relate to this. It’s painful and saddening when one’s own community — the people whom one recognizes as one’s own — dismiss a whole chunk of one’s identity.

Rich N Rich N (Jun 09 2021 9:49PM) : Blown away more

This is just so profound. Right? Amazing. My head is blowing up with ideas. Thank you Nickaylia!

Ian S Ian S (Jun 09 2021 9:44PM) : It feels like this poem is so self-conscious about inversions--inversions of gender, of clothing, of expectations.

Ian S Ian S (Jun 09 2021 9:45PM) : These stanzas made me think of Elliot Page recently coming out as transgender, and describing how it was so hard to imagine their future the way they wanted. I almost wonder how they would respond to this poem?

Rich N Rich N (Jun 09 2021 9:47PM) : Brilliance and beauty more

Wow! there is so much to digest here. I’m just impressed, at the start, with the tech savvy layout and interface of this document. My students in affluent CT aren’t even getting such access to this kind of technology. You folk rock!

Jun 9

Jane H Jane H (Jun 09 2021 9:49PM) : Language of Letters more

Loving these words, so I’m playing them back:
experimenting with boredom and creativity
desire to center creativity at a time when it was lost
Their poems were no longer outlets kept in their iPhone notes
