Writing Our Lives: Witness & Transformation [Carolyne Wright]
All Levels | In this class, we’ll explore how our lives are affected by the public events of our era. We’ll draw connections between social changes we’ve experienced in our lifetimes and our own personal transformations. Looking at work by writers such as James Baldwin, Sandra Cisneros, Mark Doty, Carolyn Forché, Joy Harjo, Mary Karr, Tracy K. Smith, and Brian Turner, who engage with and respond to urgent political and social contexts, we will create our own work that inspires and provokes.
