The Sweet We Make When Words Aren’t Enough
We invite you to bring your grief to the table—in the collapse of every language and spectacle that Agnese Krivade, Billie Meiniche, Dimitris Chimonas, Giuliana Beya Dridi, Magdalena Beliavska, Masha Domracheva, Noah Storrs Gokul, Sanna J. Hirvonen, Seta Astreou-Karides, Sharon Romie, Shoshana Walfish, Tara White, along with tutors Aziza Harmel and Harun Morrison, have pursued, knowing that we owe our freedom to the corpses that rest beneath us.
