Speech. Silence. Articulation. Movement. Delivery. Voice in writing comes through in so many different ways. Historically, cis men have been heralded for their use of voice in writing, but what about the strength of other voices? In this panel discussion, Maneo Mohale, Eve Joseph, and Nisa Malli come together to discuss what it means to create a voice, what we mean when we reference voice, and how a voice can change everything. Moderated by Hannah McGregor.
