ABOUT THE EVENT 

An evening of poetry that honors the legacy of Asian & Asian American ancestry while planting seeds of hope, affirmation, and power for the future. Co-presented by Political Inheritance, AAWAA, and Oakland Asian Cultural Center as part of the Flor y Canto Literary Festival .

ILLUMINATE III is an iteration of the poetry performance series from Political Inheritance, a visual arts exhibition and literary performance featuring womxn-identifying artists of Asian and Pacific Islander diasporic experiences with the goal of provoking reflection, conversation, and bridging about the inherited experiences—passed down within cultures and families—that shape AAPI’s relationships to U.S. political systems and U.S. political action. For the most recent updates, please visit politicalinheritance.com. Political Inheritance is the culminating event of AAWAA’s Emerging Curators Program.

WHEN: Friday, June 11 @ 7:00PM PDT
