![@futurefullstories Futurefull Stories sponsored this classroom visit where poetry, story, and imagination got to breathe out loud. I, @lindoyes, shared my journey, gifted copies of PawnShop, and talked about the stories that held me up when the world felt heavy. Then the scholars built tiny cardboard houses covered in the quotes, mantras, and affirmations that that built them up. These little structures shaped by Black imagination and the futures they’re already dreaming toward..It meant everything to watch them hear my story, tell their own, and open a book rooted in telling a story of a better tomorrow. Grateful to Futurefull Stories for making this moment possible, and proud this collaboration flowed through @poetryblerdsandjams Poetry Blerds and Jams aka PB&J, where Black imagination is celebrated and built by our hands..[Alt text: Students building small cardboard houses during a poetry workshop, surrounded by markers, papers, and graphic novel “PawnShop”.].• #BlackImagination• #PoetryWorkshop• #FuturefullStories• #graphicnovel• #PawnShopGraphicNovel](https://sp1.picnob.com/p/pt_6747252444236563483713_0_2372f7cc5711b14bdd0ad285f22eaa64.jpg?o=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&h=9d8b252ca9a1819936f969abb36b296b)
