My Story Is Your Story, Too  

Mo Harper-Desir
​Storytelling is the oldest form of history-keeping, entertainment, and tradition. Aren't some of your fondest memories stories from your past?  Ones you might hear at family holidays about people you possibly never even met? Stories that tell who you are, speak to your legacy, or a future for which you’re striving? We can find the powers and gifts we possess by using our voices and our ears. In this workshop, participants will be guided through conversations on the importance of storytelling and empowering students through their stories. We will touch on topics of youth empowerment, representation, and the importance of individual stories as a part of the whole community. Then we’ll participate in three mini-activities teachers can take back to their students to weave storytelling into their curriculum and classroom culture. Activities will include creative writing, visual arts, and movement.
