We’re gathering on Nov 24 to return to the source — to the stories that shaped us, the ones we inherited, the ones we’re ready to unmake. Inspired by Sylvia Wynter’s work, this generative workshop invites writers to rethink new modes of being human. — you’re invited. ✨ Link in the comment!
A promotional poster for an HFR virtual generative workshop titled “A Return to the Source: Sylvia Wynter & the Power of Writing New Origin Stories.” The poster features a black-and-white photo of Sylvia Wynter reclining in a chair, writing in a notebook. The background fades from cream to light lavender, with the date “Nov 24, 1–2:30 pm AZ” at the bottom. A beige-toned HFR poster with a block of text describing a generative workshop inspired by Jamaican literary critic and cultural theorist Sylvia Wynter. The text explains Wynter’s focus on cultural practices, origin stories, and reimagining what it means to be human. A beige-toned HFR poster introducing Nana Atakora Appiah-Padi, described as a 4th-year PhD student in Justice and Social Inquiry. The text outlines his research on social identities, decolonization, maroon cosmologies, and ecological practices, as well as his work as a substitute teacher and nonprofit program director.

Ok that I never finished that I was actually enjoying was Conjour Women by Afia Atakora. It sits on my bookshelf with the bookmark right where I left it, mocking me. One day I’ll finish it. It’s a civil war era novel.
