Write Your Truth


The problems of our time are political, ecological, economic—but the solutions are cultural. How do people speak their truth? How do we listen eloquently? If communication is the fundamental alternative to violence and injustice, what is the work of each voice among us?  - Kim Stafford
We face an election in November.  It will involve choices in the political, ecological and economic arena. The media promotes the negativity and push-pull of candidates on issues.  No one shares solutions or ideas without an attack.

MOVE BEYOND.

If you had access to resources of power and possibility, what solutions would you pose to solve issues that face our country?

Choose one concern to investigate. Rather than take sides or shred current views, let your creativity and writing skills launch an alternative.

Write to present creative solutions and uncover ideas when you speak your truth. Pursue what Kim Stafford asks, "What is the work of each voice among us?"
