Protest & Hope, featuring Yvette Angelique

Join Yvette Angelique for this workshop where you will craft poems to cultivate vision, courage, and decisive action. Consider today’s political landscape, along with movements for racial and gender equality and human rights. Protest poetry has helped encourage civic and grassroots engagement and adds to public debate and dialogue. ​

Yvette Angelique (MA-TLA, CMT-P, MBSR-Q), a poet, is the founder of Narratives for Change, a social justice art and mindfulness education practice. She uses storytelling to heal, create art, and raise consciousness on cultural issues, leading us toward liberation. Prioritizing people of the global majority, her work stresses slowing down, body awareness, cultural experience, and present moment awareness—especially for writers and folks leading community change.
