The Center for Social Justice Spoken Word Workshop series seeks to foster a sense of duty and creative self-actualization in which attendees build on the praxis of poetry to nurture equity and justice. Workshop participants will leave with developing a deeper understanding of the spoken word, perform their new skills in front of new audiences in our Virtual Justice Events or café nights, and a renewed sense of faith in their artwork and justice work.

Our facilitator will be Jada Imani. She is an East St. Louis-born, Bay Area-raised Hip-Hop R&B artist and organizer. Imani has collaborated on projects with Adidas, the Oakland Museum of California, and the Grammys Recording Academy as a voting member, but her passion is in local, independent projects.

This class will take place bi-weekly on Wednesday evenings from 6-7:30 PM starting May 18th and until September 7th.

Please fill out this form to register. These questions are meant to give the facilitators a better understanding of how to develop the class structure. If you have any questions, please call Guled Muse, Community Education and Engagement Manager, at (707) 655-0509 or email gmuse@glide.org.
