The Revolution Poeticized (Litquake Out Loud)

700 Mission Street,San Francisco CA 94103

16 October, 2021

Description

Litquake's 2021 Festival runs from 10/7-10/23. Full schedule at litquake.org! Sponsored by Yerba Buena Gardens Festival Poetry, by definition, is political. Therefore, poets cannot (and should not) strive to be apolitical but should constantly interrogate the ways their political views surface in their work. This showcase of Black Bay Area poets at Litquake Out Loud’s outdoor stage will explore poetry that engages in revolutionary themes, concepts, and ideas, and challenge each of us to reimagine what true political transformation looks like. Seats available but not guaranteed. Bring a blanket for the grass! FREE, $5-10 suggested donation (pre-registration encouraged) Browse Litquake's bookstore here -- https://bookshop.org/shop/litquake More about Litquake Out LOud here -- litquake.org/outloud Litquake’s diverse live programs are created with the aim of inspiring critical engagement with the key issues of the day, bringing people together around the common humanity encapsulated in literature, and perpetuating a sense of literary community, as well as a vibrant forum for Bay Area writing. We believe in literature as a public good, so we work to produce events that are accessible to all. Learn more at litquake.org
