The Caribbean Memory Project - Education

LIFE WRITING
This workshop is designed for survivors of traumatic experiences (disease, near-death experiences, etc.) who wish to use memoir writing as a way to tell their stories. In these three 3-hour workshops, participants will draft, compose, revise, and (optionally/anonymously) publish their works-in-progress. 

This workshop falls under the community archiving initiatives of the Caribbean Memory Project; as such, it will not only value the creation of compelling original stories for the education of an audience of readers, but will also contribute to the collection of ideas, emotions, conflicts, traumas, and triumphs that help shape the lives of the authors and those around them. 

Some major themes will be covered, including culture, gender, race, sex/sexuality, violence, etc.—with a deliberate view toward how they provide nuance, texture, and shape to each author’s main project and how they are encouraged to approach life-writing as life-affirming practice.
