Write to Preserve, Edit to Protect: Counterstorying from the Margins
Drawing from her dissertation work on the microaggressional experiences of Native students, Cait Bergeon (Community Engagement Center) will discuss the role of counterstorying as a pedagogical tool. Weaving together the methodology of portraiture and poetic inquiry, her work hones into the medicinal expression of curating and cultivating familial counterstories through the vehicle of poetry as a tool for survivance. Cait will also lead participants through a short interactive activity using found poetry. All faculty and staff are welcome. Lunch will be provided.
