Thank you all so much for coming out to the Bleeding Expressions Writers Workshop. We read a play by Amiri Baraka called Dutchman, which kicked our discussion into high gear. This play presents some heavy topics on race, gender & power.
If you would like to read Dutchman for yourself, you can find a PDF file online by googling the title. Please feel free to drop your comments here so that we may continue our discussion.
We also read some original pieces & gave each other feedback. Please feel free to post your pieces here so that we may continue to enjoy them.
Peace & Love yall.
