Imagination is one of the most powerful modes of resistance that oppressed and exploited folks can and do use.” – bell hooks

In “imagination as resistance,” we’re leaning into the power of words to shape worlds. Together, we will use elements of speculative design and afrofruturism to imagine a present and future where we are all free.

This is your opportunity to co-vision with us if you missed “speaQ: visioning liberated futures” at the end of January!

speaQ is great for poets, writers, spoken word artists, performers, and creatives of all types to create surrounded by community. This is one of Dreams of Hope’s #intergenerational spaces, meaning all ages are welcome! 🌈💫 Speak your truth at speaQ! #TheQIsForQueer

🦋 Planning on coming through? Help us prep by RSVPing 🙂

I’m no longer a “youth.” Can I still attend?
Yes! speaQ is one of our intergenerational programs for community members. That means we intentionally hold space for the yelders and elders to join our young people to foster collective wisdom <3
