100,000 Poets for Change

The protest continues

This weekend (September 30) more than 2o0 poets contributed to the 100,000 Poets for Change Resistance wall sponsored by The BeZine.

The BeZine is produced by a collaborative effort between spiritual communities and artists in order to create “sacred space (common ground) as it is expressed through the arts.”
