SUMMARY:Virtual Poetry Reading: Protest 2021 Anthology with 100 Thousand Poets for Change
DESCRIPTION:Virtual Poetry Reading: Protest 2021 Anthology with 100 Thousand Poets for Change\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/82855093815?pwd=Ryt0RzBqMmoyYWxJU3Q1YmJ2dnZmdz09 \nMeeting ID: 828 5509 3815 – Passcode: 838862 \nMoonstone Arts Center celebrates 11 years of 100 Thousand Poets for Change with readings from our new anthology Protest 2021 \n \n  \n100 Thousand Poets for Change (100 TPC) has organized over 5000 poetry\, art and music gatherings for the cause of Peace\, Justice\, and Sustainability across the globe in the last 10 years. Poets from many languages\, cultures\, geographical regions\, ethnicities\, creeds\, beliefs\, and religious affiliations have come together year after year to lead and promote poetry readings\, without any preconditions or censorship\, where participants speak out for causes nearest their hearts. In the process\, oppressions\, exploitative practices\, biases\, and abuses of many kinds have been highlighted (personal and social\, communal\, political and economic\, spiritual\, intellectual and emotional)—whether based on gender\, race\, class\, or religious affiliation\, color\, territory\, language and cultural tradition\, or any form of differentiation whatsoever. \nThese are real troubles that wrack our world; there are distinct and often mortal consequences to these regimes of tyranny and persecution; and there is a collective interest in striving toward the demanding ideal that 100 TPC has set for itself in calling for Peace\, Justice\, Sustainability. \nMoonstone is continuing this global initiative with our latest anthology\, Protest 2021. The anthology includes over 40 poets writing about creating change through protest. \n
