How can poetry make you a more confident speaker?

Sacramento spoken word artist Fong Tran joins us for a workshop on how poetry can bolster your confidence as a speaker and performer! Fong will also perform his own poetry that evening.

Fong Tran is a Sacramento community organizer & youth advocate by day, spoken word artist and social butterfly by night.

Fong first started writing poetry through the June Jordan’s “Poetry of the People” class in the UC Berkeley African American Studies Department. Influenced by his activism, Fong’s writing aids in amplifying frequently silenced voices and is deeply entrenched in the values of social justice and intersections of community struggle.
