19th annual Allied Media Conference

In the introduction to the anthology Octavia’s Brood, Walidah Imarisha writes: “Whenever we try to envision a world without war, without violence, without prisons, without capitalism, we are engaging in speculative fiction.” In this workshop, we will explore the connections between imagining and organizing, engage in writing activities designed to help us envision freedom, and examine poems that leverage the power of lyricism to point us toward the world(s) we are building.
