Letters & Verses: Justice Speaks to Our Pain

Letters & Verses was a heartfelt afternoon of storytelling, poetry, and real conversations. Our featured poets spoke powerfully to themes of identity, healing, and legacy, while the open mic gave space for community voices to share their own truths.

We closed with an open dialogue conversation with featured poets on grief and poetry led by Julius Boatwright of @steelsmilingpgh and Meleak Potter of @realtythinking and @potterthepoet—reminding us that creative expression can be both release and restoration.
