Join us as we participate in 100 Thousand Poets for Change 2016 and put Alabama on the map of poets who care about social change. Poets will read poems and artists will perform pieces which address social justice issues. 

In addition to sharing our hopes for a better world, this will also be a fundraiser for Dynamite Hill-Smithfield Community Land Trust, a community-led non-profit initiative to establish a Community Land Trust centered in the Historic Smithfield Community of Birmingham, Alabama.
