Event Details
In a society built on racism, telling our own stories is the most powerful, and sometimes, the only tool we have. It is cathartic, it is clearing, and it has been the quiet vehicle of progress since the beginning of our existence.
Poetry, in its non-judgmental, expansive acceptance, is one of the most accessible avenues for story-telling. In this workshop, for the new or novice writer, you will dip your quill into this deep well of freedom.
Assétou Xango (Ah-say-too SEAN-go), also known as the Dark Goddess Poet, uses Spoken Word to dismantle the harmful, colonial binaries that bind us. As a black, pansexual, polyamorous, genderqueer, womxn. They exist as the in-between, the darkness that serves as the mirror to our shadow selves. Xango’s other-world guides us to accept the parts of ourselves that have been deemed irredeemable.
This organization is funded in part by grants from the City of Boulder’s Boulder Arts Commission and the Human Relations Commission.

Event Details
Directed by: Jonathan Meyer Robinson
An incendiary mix of documentary, poetry, storytelling, drama, and performance, EVERY CHILD IS BORN A POET explores the life and work of Piri Thomas (b. 1928) the Afro-Cuban-Puerto Rican author of the classic autobiographical novel Down These Mean Streets (1967). The film traces Thomas’ path from childhood to manhood in New York City’s Spanish Harlem, El Barrio, from the 1930s through the 1960s; his parents’ immigrant experience, home life during the Great Depression, his membership in barrio youth gangs, his struggle to come to terms with his mixed-racial identity, his travels as a teen-age merchant marine, his heroin addiction, his notorious armed robbery of a Greenwich Village nightclub, his six years spent in prison, and then his emergence as a writer. Thomas’ coming-of-age story is counter-pointed with verité scenes of his on-going work of forty-five years as an educator and activist empowering marginalized and incarcerated youths. A stylized, genre-spanning production, EVERY CHILD IS BORN A POET is a riveting portrait of a life lived through struggle, self-discovery, and transformation as it examines Thomas’ use of creative expression as a means of confronting poverty, racism, violence and isolation.

Join Kabbalah Experience in a virtual screening of “enough.” by Nathan Nzanga on Sunday, January 24 from 4-5 p.m. MST.
Following the racial injustices suffered across the nation over the last year, and the historic insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, “enough.” is one of the most relevant films for inspiring the difficult conversations we need to engage in surrounding race and the need for introspection to shift perspective.
David Sanders, founder and spiritual director of Kabbalah Experience, will join Nathan following the 13-minute film to address the need for compassion and holding opposites in our work for inclusion and diversity.
Nate’s short film evolved from his music. In the summer of 2020, while recording in Chicago in the wake of George Floyd’s death, Nate wrote a sequel to his song, “TRUCE.” The new song, “enough”, is like a lightning bolt to the heart, the evolution of TRUCE’s cry for love into a righteous pain over collective apathy and inaction. The Prodigy Camp community banded together to elevate Nate’s art with the short film “enough”.

Athena Project and Tattered Cover Present Read & Rant
A book club reading and ranting about scripts
Read & Rant a book club exploring plays written primarily by women*. Read two or three scripts a month and meet at Tattered Cover on Colfax to discuss the works. Join Athena Project’s Executive Producer, Angela Astle, and Literary Manager, Darce Beck, May 18th at 6:30PM at our free monthly book club. Learn what makes a good script; how reading a play is different from a book or story; converse with invited guests as part of our monthly discussions. Read & Rant is just one of our programs aimed to raise awareness of the underrepresentation of women’s stories on stage.
To be ready to participate in our May 18th date, please read the following:
- The Invisible Tribe by Mikaley Osley
- Rojava by Sharon Farrell
- Secret Skies: Songs and Letters from the Longest War by Michelle Ruehl
The plays this month will focus on varied aspects of military life in conjunction with National Armed Forces Day, May 16, an annual salute to all branches of the US military. As one of our playwrights this month is Denver based, our invited guests are Colorado playwrights who will speak to the art and craft of playwriting.
FOOD FOR THOUGHT:
Why does one write a play rather than another style of writing?
How are characters formed?
What opportunities arise for playwrights in Colorado, the west, the nation, the world?

An electronic copy is available after you register.

We all start somewhere as we venture into the uncharted – sometimes teeming with clarity, sometimes hesitant with uncertainty. And while we can never know what contours the journey will take, we can know it will require ingenuity, collaboration, and nerve.
We inherit maps that can inspire the way forward. Adventurers who have gone ahead of us exploring the space of inner worlds between neurons & synapses, mapping our collective motivations and movements, examining our impact on the natural world and climate, and poets who have long weaved meaning and inspiration. There is much to explore.
On March 20th we will venture together into unmapped ideas in science, art, business, health, poetry, and social science. Join TEDxMileHigh as we celebrate our human spark of discovery and impulse to forge ahead into the UNCHARTED.
Speakers and schedule will be announced leading up to the event.
