Poetry of raw fearless truth and the realest crip insight fully embedded in absolute lyrical lounge.
In a moment of social exhaustion, we want to ask how we might care for each other differently. We Can’t Live Without Our Lives is a 5-day exploration of care as a form of struggle and resistance, with communities who embody it.
