In the first hour TMI will facilitate a mini-workshop for up to 10 participants where we create a safe(r) space to encourage brave(r) writing and communication and take participants through a series of free-writing and brain-storming exercises to unearth their lived experiences of Ubuntu; times when they experienced their individual identities and well-being tied to the community's well-being. In the second hour, we will offer support services for storytellers who wish to read their work during the 15-minutes of allotted open mic time at the main event.
