DESCRIPTION: We’re facing climate chaos, but consequences vary across class & country. In the ‘cost of living’ crisis, we’re “all in this together”, except, not really. Our open mic meets monthly. During Lockdown, we went on Zoom and have stayed hybrid (Zoom slots limited). Please bring up to 4 mins of poetry, prose, song, on feminism, activism, and solidarity in the face of increasing authoritarian rule. We welcome new and established writers.
