We Do This ‘Til We Free Us: The Love Tank invites you to an evening of rebellious stories, poetry, monologues, and prose. An evening of words that beat and hum, that move worlds and are world-making. Words that step on necks. Words that set us free. Words that whisper – “We have nothing to lose but our chains”
Hosted by: Kylo Thomas; poets include Nat Raha.

COVID safety information: the venues we're using are ventilated, have HEPA air filters, and CO2 monitors (to measure air quality) - but that doesn't make them totally COVID, flu or common-cold safe. We'll have free masks available and request that masks are worn where possible. Got a cough, cold, or flu-like symptoms? Please take a break until your symptoms have subsided: many of us in our communities have to do everything we can not to get sick, including those of us with disabilities or compromised immune systems.
