F Njahîra Wangarî - Book Chapter

Abstract
"This chapter blends African oral and written narratives, lived experiences with a genetic chronic disability and a Roman Catholic upbringing. These will be interrogated to illustrate the role of alternative explanations in influencing advocacy and activism for the lives, wellbeing, dignity and inclusion of persons with disabilities. Particularly, this chapter is an exploration of self-identity and how persons with disabilities are conditioned to view ourselves in specific ways while highlighting alternative perceptions available is presented by the author. It engages the works of several African and African-descendent authors who feature persons with disabilities as characters in their books and relies on narrative prosthesis as the basis for this engagement."

Event Description

Healing Solidarity is excited to offer a BIPOC only Spoken Word Poetry and Collaging Course titled 'Embodying rest: the art of radical care'

The Spoken Word Poetry and Collaging Course  is a collaboration between Nikita Shah and Takyiwa Danso and has been curated with play, intention, creativity, rest and care in mind. 
Nikita and Takyiwa have curated the course in such a way that it is interwoven reminding us of the ways in which we are all connected in our joys and struggles as BIPOC people.
As in our shared and also diverse lineages and ancestry where creativity has been at the centre stage of our liberation, celebration and rest- through the Spoken Word Poetry and Collaging Course we are tapping into that inherent individual and collective wisdom.

We encourage you to take up the course as a whole in order to enjoy the ways in which poetry and collaging relationship with each other as well as the wisdom that lay in the mutuality of our experiences. However, there is also an option to choose one course. 

You can find more details about the course and the sliding scale workshop fee here: https://healingsolidarity.org/embodying-rest/

The course kicks off on the 25th of May and we still have spaces - so sign up now! I am happy to answer any questions so please do reach out.
