🌻 Session 6: Freedom ❤️🔥 [Asian American Poetry As A Radical Possibility]
🌱 NOTAWLOF; sliding scale contributions here: https://givebutter.com/radfall24
👋 Hello everyone, we are looking forward to seeing you again/meeting you on Sunday!
📚 Our readings for each class can be accessed here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TLg1TJvfWJOHX0sOX8sN1_k_L9kQ2BHv7suJywAp6-I/edit?usp=sharing
💭 Please come to class with a “top 3” of poems you’d like to discuss, and we will vote together on which poems to focus on during our time together. Evyn Le Espiritu Gandhi’s "Archipelagic History: Vietnam, Palestine, Guam, 1967–1975" delineates what Gandhi calls a “archipelagic” view of history.
This collection of poems demonstrate solidarities between poets from these regions of the world, and hopefully can help us imagine the way that each of our own freedoms are inherently linked to, with, and through the freedom of others.
