The Poem as Protest
Description
Poetry lives in a world of multitudes – it moves through us hungry and delectable, fleeting and resonant, sonic and physical, as both an act of remembrance and erasure. When reading poetry, we invite an unnamable force to make a home of us, to rewire our body and mind.
In this way, the act of reading or writing a poem is transformative, rebellious even. In this course, you will be encouraged to lean into this rebellious nature, to imagine the poem as an agent of change, an act of protest – against social injustice and gender norms, against false narratives and personal misbeliefs, against opposers of love, land, and humanity. You will read and discuss short poems that navigate an expansive idea of “protest,” responding to related prompts with your own spontaneous writing.
