Oh B*TCH!: A Feminist Obituary Writing Workshop

A powerful workshop that reimagines how we honor lives and legacies.

Obituaries are more than summaries of a life — they are historical documents. They shape who is remembered, how they are remembered, and what kinds of lives are treated as worthy of honor.

In this intimate and reflective workshop, we will explore what it means to write a feminist obituary: one that resists patriarchal norms, challenges systemic erasure, and celebrates the full humanity of those too often reduced to roles like “wife,” “mother,” or “helper.” Together, we’ll examine how traditional obituary structures often uphold gender, class, and racial bias, and how feminist writing can offer something truer, richer, and more liberatory.

Who This Workshop Is For

This space is for writers, grief-holders, historians of the everyday, and anyone interested in telling the truth about a life — especially the lives of women, marginalized people, and community builders whose stories deserve to be held differently.

No prior writing experience is necessary. All you need is willingness, curiosity, and care.

Space is intimate and limited. Register today to reserve your spot: https://forms.gle/5vFf8iNdCugyu3eEA

Spot the Trick! A 3-part Media Literacy workshop for grades 6-8

Spot the Trick! A 3-part Media Literacy workshop for grades 6-8

🌟 Spot the Trick! is an interactive, youth-centered media literacy workshop series designed to help middle schoolers think critically, ask better questions, and feel more confident navigating the media they encounter every day—from social media and ads to videos, memes, and headlines.

This series meets kids where they are. Instead of telling them what to think, they build the skills to figure things out for themselves.

Across three engaging workshops (starting May 2nd), students learn how arguments work, how emotions are used to influence opinions, and how stories shape what we believe about the world—and ourselves.

The Three Workshops

May 2nd, 2026

Workshop 1: “Wait… That Doesn’t Prove Anything!”
Introduction to Logical Fallacies
Students learn how to spot misleading arguments and common “thinking tricks” that show up in ads, videos, and online conversations.

May 16th, 2026

Workshop 2: “Why Did That Make Me Feel Something?”
Emotional Manipulation & Media Tricks
Kids explore how emotions like fear, excitement, and anger are intentionally used to grab attention and influence decisions.

May 30th, 2026

Workshop 3: “Who’s Telling the Story—and Why?”
Narrative Power & Resistance
Students examine who gets to tell stories, whose voices are missing, and how storytelling shapes beliefs—and how they can push back.

Each workshop builds off the former, so please only sign your youth up if you can commit to all three dates!
