New Forum presents Reclaiming the C Word

Reclaiming the C word

A sliver is a small thing embedded in our skin, which causes pain. How has the word Cunt established pain for women when it should be a warm and embodied text? In this workshop, we will talk about the word Cunt and its historical meanings for women (and men). We will discuss and begin its reclamation in the context of our own writing and creativity. We will begin to write our own meanings in the Telling of Cunt and call it a reclaimed sliver fiction. Bring your body, do a reading of your work related to Cunt, and try on some freeflow energy in creating a beautiful creative female experience. Open to all!
