Rita Banerjee, Lisa Yarger, Chantal Graham, and Emily Phillips have helped organized a literary reading for 100,000 Poets for Change in Munich Germany on September 28, 2013 at 7 pm. As poets and artists gather around the world on Sept. 28 to promote meaningful social, environmental, and political change, The Munich Readery, together with local writers of color, seeks to create a safe place where poets and artists who identify as black and/or people of color feel emboldened and empowered to share their creative expressions as well as their experiences of everyday racism. Various mediums, including theater, song, dance, written prose and poetry are gladly accepted. This event will be a celebration of art, an evening of reflection, and a call for change.

Stanford University will telecast live selections from global 100,000 Poets for Change readings on September 28. For live telecast information, please see the 100TPC Website.
