POETRY WORKSHOP
* ARTIST EVENT * NOT AN S&S CLASS

This class investigates or states the effects of having one's social identity (identities) (mis)represented by a beloved fictional character. Poets like Marlin M. Jenkins, Melissa Lozada-Oliva, and A. Van Jordan, are in conversation with animated television shows, comic-books, and live-action series, expressing how these popular icons influence one's perception of self. Through studying a few of their poems, we explore complicated feelings around projection, identity markers in speculative fiction, and commodification of identity. Using narrative, metaphor, and imagery, writers will examine a fictional character they believe (mis)represents them, inciting critique, celebration, re-imagination, all three, or more.
