SUMMARY:Through Seizure and Silence: Intersections of Disability\, Race\, and Wartime Incarceration
DESCRIPTION:What does it mean to be seized without warning? To seize back things taken? How do we reclaim that which is silenced or gone? Bridging lives and cultures\, Brian Komei Dempster shares poems from his award-winning book\, Seize\, based on his experience of raising a non-verbal\, epileptic son. Dempster deftly connects his son’s physical/verbal seizure to the wartime history of his maternal family—the forced removal from their church home and unjust incarceration in Topaz prison camp and elsewhere. Dempster’s poems retrace the contours of mixed race identity and fallout from myriad losses. Family photos illuminate these intergenerational legacies. (Virtual event).

SUMMARY:Intersections of Identity and Experience\, History and Imagination
DESCRIPTION:In this webinar\, open to prose writers and poets of all ages and backgrounds\, participants will use freewriting\, revision\, and in-depth feedback as tools to create work that can spark new writing possibilities or build on an existing project. The class will address these types of questions: How do we synthesize our experiences and histories with acts of imagination? How do we break silences and heal from trauma through storytelling? How do we write about intersections between race\, gender\, sexuality\, disability\, and other aspects of our identities in effective and nuanced ways? Participants will be encouraged to draw from personal\, family\, and cultural histories\, in a supportive yet critically constructive writing environment.
