Poetry Panel Talk at Ærl’s Barbershop

On January 29th, we had the honor to have Aki, Jurgera Hassel, and Gershwin Bonevacia on a panel talk at a black-owned Barshop in Amsterdam.

During this session, we got to learn and discover the journey that led them to become inspiring poets, writers, and performers.

“May those whose holy task it is,
To guide impulsive youth,
Fail not to cherish in their souls

A reverence for truth;
For teachings which the lips impart
Must have their source within the heart.”

— Charlotte Forten Grimké
