Noche de Poetas: Women, Gender, and Sexuality
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 Spring 2020 semester.
OPEN MIC!
Don't miss out on the amazingly talented poets as they share their interpretations on this month's theme, “Rising Up.”
Leading the night will be our featured poets: Rania Salem and Yasmine (Yaz) Tadros.
- How do we counter narrate stereotypes that exotify and orientalize us?
- Why is it important to understand our cultures and identities in the face of white supremacy and heteropatriarchy?
