Pride Poetry Workshop: "Weird Way to Protest...but, Yes!"

“Weird Way to Protest…but, Yes!” led by Angelique Palmer

Using popular protest signs and memes as prompts, participants create short poems in three veins: love, abstract, and erotica. This approach highlights the accessibility of inspiration, examines protest poems from new and imaginative angles, and boldly stands in queerness in a world that wants to pretend us away. Open to writers of all levels of experience and backgrounds.
Angelique Palmer is a performance poet, kindergarten teacher, and spoken word instructor at Wilkes University, author of two books of poems, who is in her second year of a three-year tenure as Fairfax County Poet Laureate.
