Manage episode 243862929 series 2553238
Women of color have a unique presence in Washington, D.C.'s cultural landscape as creators of though-provoking nonfiction, soul-stirring poetry, and leaders of innovative spaces like Duende District.
This group of literary purveyors includes model, writer and artist Nicole Capó Martínez of Duende District and Natalie Hopkinson, Ph.D., an award-winning essayist, critical-cultural scholar and asst. professor in the doctoral program in Howard University’s Department of Communication, Culture and Media Studies.
Capó Martínez and Hopkinson recently visited "Live From The Library" to share their thoughts on:
- Using writing as an art of resistance.
- What inspires their writing and published work.
- And how outlets like Duende District and the political arena, respectively, create opportunities for writers of color to reach a wider audience and use their pen for exploration and change.
