This ground breaking book on the written, spoken and sung word for individual and social transformation emcompasses writing, storytelling, songs, drama, performance as a personal and collective tool for liberation. Whether through community storytelling for elders, individual journaling for self-discovery, or interdisciplinary theater for underserved youth, transformative language artists create greater opportunities for people to be heard, witnessed, and to become agents of change in their lives and communities.
