Film screening of Poetry of Resilience and poetry-writing workshop, facilitated by Catherine Kineavy of The Cultural Worker.
Poetry of Resilience is a documentary by Academy Award-nominated Katja Esson about six international poets who individually survived Hiroshima, the Holocaust, China’s Cultural Revolution, the Kurdish Genocide in Iraq, the Rwandan Genocide, and the Iranian Revolution.
Following the screening will be a poetry-writing workshop with Catherine Kineavy, sharing our collective stories of resilience of the past, the present, and the future and how they connect generations.
