Let me wear the day
Well so when it reaches you
You will enjoy it.

The Logistics '20
Who: Revolutionary daughters ages 15+ who have attended the program in the past

Where: Harriet Tubman's Internet
When: The week of July 5-11 (Planted in the Same Pot)
Sundays, July 12 - August 9 (Workshops + yoga)
Select weekdays (Electives + writing coaching)
Why: To tell the truth about Black women and girls; to expedite a shift in consciousness; to provide a safe space within which to create; to build critical reading, writing and thinking skills; to fill the intellectual and creative gaps often produced by summer break; to grow with those planted in the same pot; to grow things that nourish and sustain us; to live beyond our stories; to honor our spirits
How: Vigorously, and with love
Deadline to apply: June 14, 2020 at 11:59 PM
Application requirements: Former participation in ARS, writing sample, video interview, and participation in Planted in the Same Pot, our introductory, week-long team-building and meditation retreat
Daughters may earn up to a $500 stipend for enthusiastic completion of the program. They are gifted personal libraries, iTunes gift cards and customized journals. Daughters are encouraged and expected to participate in one-one-one writing workshops, at least one elective and the creation of this year's end-of-summer product - a documentary cataloguing their experiences during COVID-19.
Apply here if you've attended A Revolutionary Summer in the past.
