From T Clear:

Greetings Easy Speakers!

It’s time again for Easy Speak at the Hummingbird Saloon!

I would be more than delighted if you came and shared your songs, poems, shopping lists, paragraphs, memos and all measures of inspired performance that take up no more than five minutes at the mic.

We start things up round about 8pm, there will be a sign-up sheet at the bar. And….happy hour prices all evening!

    Is there going to be the open mike this coming Monday Dec 23 at the Hummingbird? I’m guessing not, but thought I’d check.
    Also, can I tell a story instead of a poem? I know it has to 5 min or less…
    Thanks,

    Yes this is an open mic.

Giving Tuesday 2023

Throughout the year, we organize events designed to foster a community of like-minded people centered around organic, open-form poetry, and an ecological philosophy that emphasizes a connection to our bioregion, its history and the indigenous people that lived here long, long before colonization. We aim to expose our supporters to ideas about art as an art-of-living practice, inspired by the spiritual practice of understanding the bioregion surrounding us: soil, air, water, flora, fauna, and weather. In 2023, we hosted a successful Poetry Postcard Fest and the 7th Cascadia Poetry Festival, along with launching Watershed Press and publishing our anthology Cascadian Zen Vol. I. This is all thanks to donations from people like you!

Gabriella Gutiérrez y Muhs Sociology Interview

Gabriella Gutiérrez y Muhs Sociology Interview

In the interview, Gutiérrez y Muhs discusses her journey from child farmworker to a professor with multiple degrees from multiple institutions, including Stanford University and Occidental College, and explains the values she learned from her working class background that she was able to incorporate later into academia. She also mentions her role as the 2018-2020 Theiline Pigott McCone Endowed Chair in the Humanities at Seattle University and her role as editor for Presumed Incompetent, both positions allowing her to focus on uplifting Chicanx and Latinx voices and highlight experiences of unequal treatment for POC, queer and working class people in academia.
