Join Mexican Students de Aztlán (MeSA), Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP), and Union for Puerto Rican Students (UPRS) for their second Noche de Poetas (Poetry Night) of the Fall 2019 semester.
OPEN MIC!
Don't miss out on the amazingly talented poets as they share their interpretations on this month's theme, “Masculinity, Femininity, and Identity ”
Leading the night will be our featured poet: Hibah Hassan
- What are some of the ways our identities have been shaped by the environment surrounding us? Do you believe it produces a healthy representation?
- How do you imagine yourself without the social pressures of conformity and coercion?
Hibah Hassan is a self proclaimed poet, future educator, and proud Palestinian. Her poetry focuses on various topics, ranging from feelings of displacement to spiritual contentment. As a 20 year old with a lot of ambition, she plans on sharing her story through the lens of a citizen who feels like an outsider in her own country. She is on an ongoing pursuit to shed light on the realities of Palestinians.
