The African American Writers’ Alliance (AAWA) presents an evening of poetry and prose honoring Nelson Mandela’s legacy, where art meets activism in a powerful dialogue of remembrance.
Through verse and narrative, we’ll trace how words fueled the anti-apartheid movement—as protest, prayer, and proof of our shared humanity, inviting reflection on how these enduring stories continue to shape our pursuit of justice today.
ASL Interpretation and CART captioning are available during the program. In addition, a limited number of Assistive Listening Devices are available upon request. For more accessibility support, email [email protected] two weeks before the program.
