In her genre-straddling historically minded project Carmen in Diaspora, Jennifer Wilks tracks a fascination with Carmen – the woman and the opera – through the Harlem Renaissance, post WWII Hollywood, early Hip Hop, post-Apartheid southern Africa and our current re-stagings. As Wilks puts it in her discussion of Carmen adaptions in Senegalese and South African films, “Why are Karmen and Carmen—and the women in their circles—so dissatisfied with the status quo? Why does expressing that discontent ‘make waves.’”

Given the ways African American history (and women’s history) is often preserved through lived experience, oral tradition, and community memory, filmmaker Candace Bellamy speaks to the process of her next project, Daughters of the Soil. Through contextual storytelling, conversation, and reflection, the spirit of Black cowgirls is revealed—their strength, grace, and unwavering commitment to a legacy often left untold.

ire’ne lara silva’s stories are rooted in mythical realism, in liminal spaces that don’t differentiate the voices of the dead from those of the living, that navigate borders and borderless places fearlessly to bring us the stories of gods, mortals and animals. This reading is in collaboration with the Hays Youth Poet Laureate Celebration (where silva will give a second reading) and Infrarrealista Review, a multilingual literary collective, journal, press, and educational organization who created the youth writing workshop and book contest.

The goal of the program is to not only get students to appreciate and value their own work, but to connect them with artists of similar backgrounds that have paved the way in pursuing careers in creative writing. The hope is to open doors to young writers and show them their dreams are possible! The Youth Poet Laureate program, rooted in Hays County, promotes literacy through poetry, and is an opportunity for both underserved youth and the local community to get excited about the literary arts.
