Red Emma's
Join Writers in Baltimore Schools, Black Words Matter, and the Johns Hopkins Poetry & Social Justice course for an evening of reading, writing, and sharing about issues surrounding the Baltimore uprising. WBS's inaugural cohort of Teaching Fellows -- current Baltimore City high school seniors -- will lead Write-In, guiding participants through a discussion and then several writing prompts. The event will culminate in an open mic, featuring readings by high school and college students in the Poetry & Social Justice course. This Write-In is open to the public! We hope to create a space for Baltimore City students to have their voices heard, but we encourage their family members and community members to attend. This event is made possible by the Maryland Humanities Council (MHC) Humanities Fund for Baltimore.
