Legacy & Lineage: Written Alive

ByLegacy And Lineage Poets

Legacy & Lineage is a course designed by international author and performance poet TS Hawkins. The goal of the course is to have students blueprint their imprint with pride by paying homage to classic literary works to quill their own legacy. Using poetry as vessel to catapult truth, the students utilized styles such as anaphora, haiku, tanka, villanelle and verse while merging lines from classic literary works to help pen their stories. Being influenced by the works of William Shakespeare, Alice Walker, Edgar Allan Poe, Lois Lowry, Tony Kushner, Jeanine Tesori, Maya Angelou, Paula S. Rothenberg and John Colapinto, just to name a few, students learned how to move language from the page to the stage; pushing themselves out of their comfort zone to cultivate a unique voice plus hone proficient skills in creative writing.
