Butt Foundation | In partnership with the Mexican American Civil Rights Institute (MACRI)\, and the Esperanza Peace and Justice Center \nDates: June 23–26\, 2025 (Mon–Thu)\, 1-4:30pm daily\nWorkshop Location: MACRI\, 2123 Buena Vista St\, San Antonio\, TX 78207\nFinal Celebration & Performance: Fri\, June 27\, 5:30-8:30pm (Rehearsal at 4:30pm)\, Esperanza Peace and Justice Center\, 922 San Pedro Ave\, San Antonio\, TX 78212 \nAbout the Workshop\n“Walk Out and Speak Up” is a dynamic storytelling workshop designed for teens ages 13–19\, inspired by the historic 1968 Edgewood Walkout—a pivotal moment in San Antonio’s fight for educational equity and social justice. Using a new documentary on the Edgewood Walkouts as a springboard\, participants will explore how young people have always been at the forefront of change and learn to craft their own powerful stories as acts of protest and community building. \nOver four days\, students will work with acclaimed teaching artists Marisela Barrera and Joyous Windrider to develop personal narratives that connect the past to the present\, centering the power of youth voices. The experience culminates in a public performance\, where students will share their stories alongside community members and documentary participants. Selected stories will be recorded and broadcast by Empower House Radio\, and preserved on Gemini Ink’s SoundCloud page. \n No experience is needed-just a willingness to share! \nPlease read our Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) sheet HERE for more information.
