Compassionate Dr. Kim McMillon is teaching ONLINE class
first four Saturdays in December 2023

U.S. Pacific Time
“THE POETRY OF HEALING: THE BODY” – ONLINE class
at San Francisco Creative Writing Institute
https://sfwriting.institute/events/the-poetry-of-healing-the-body/
cost: $395.00
In this 4-week workshop, Body Memoir-Healing with Poetry, we stand as flowers watered by healing words. Our bodies are a memoir to ourselves. We will write poems to our hearts, minds, bodies, and emotions. The most important person in this course is you. You will use words to create poetry that celebrates you.
This class is open to all. You don’t need to have ever written a poem. This is an opportunity to explore yourself through words that you create. We will also read poems that you select that support your discovery of how exceptional and beautiful you are.
The poems you create are meant to be a memoir about how you celebrate, explore, and support yourself.
INSTRUCTOR: Kim McMillon, Ph.D.
Dr. Kim McMillon is a producer, playwright, and contributor to the anthology Some Other Blues: New Perspectives on Amiri Baraka (Ohio University Press, 2021).

McMillon edited the April 2018 special edition of The Journal of PAN African Studies on the Black Arts Movement and contributed a chapter on the Black Arts Movement to the Black Power Encyclopedia (1965-1975), a two-volume reference work that explores the emergence and evolution of the Black Power Movement in the United States.
McMillon produced, wrote, and starred in her one-woman show, Confessions of a Thespian: When Spirit & Theatre Collide, directed by Margo Hall and staged at the Julia Morgan Theatre in Berkeley, CA in March 2000.
