The Take Back the Night Keynote: Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha will be hosting a Survivor Writing Workshop at the Take Back the Day Symposium! This will be a POC space and will be open to all students and survivors of color.

"What happens when you want to write about your survivorhood, but you don't know how? Why is writing our survival stories so important and so difficult as Black and Brown survivors? In this interactive writing workshop, we will create space centering oppressed folks to write our true life adventure stories of intersectional survivorhood. Using writing guidelines drawn from June Jordan's Poetry for the People and looking at amazing writing by q***r and trans people of color survivor writers, we will write our own roadmaps to survival and document the crazyamazing stories that only we have lived and can tell. We will discuss the pleasures and challenges of being writers writing and living within multiple oppressions. Participants will leave with a detailed resource list. Please come with an object that reminds you of why you write for the writing altar."

****The theme of this year and always is anti-racist approaches to sexual response, prevention, and education. In doing that, we must center the narrative of marginalized communities of color.
