Hear from a past student:
“Poetess was one of the most profound and empowering courses I have taken. I believe it should be taught at universities. If anyone can teach such a course with an empathetic, inclusive, feminist, decolonized lens, it’s @sharghzadeh. I am so grateful the course was recorded, I re-watch the recordings often! Please design part two for us!”
