2020 online courses

All workshops/courses offered are created and lead by Jacinta V. White unless otherwise noted. 

​There are two types of online workshops/courses that I offer. One is the self-paced where you immediately have access to the material that comes with that course, including audio or video recordings, and you work at your own pace. The other is the group workshops where we all start and end on a particular date; and gather in virtual video space for conversation, sharing, and writing.

​See what's offered for both, below.

​The Life of Elegies
A two-part live generative workshop exploring the history and usefulness of elegies today




Meets virtually 
Sundays, July 12  & July 19, 2020
1:00-2:15 p.m. EST





​We are surrounded by loss of some type but how do we process it, mourn it, even celebrate and honor it? In this live virtual workshop we will explore the life of elegies as a poetic form in today's time. Though we won't spend our time trying to write, in this generative workshop, a traditional elegy, we will look at some along with contemporary ones. These poems will lead our discussion before we write and share our own.

​
​
​Back by popular demand, this course examines the power of poetry for cultivating the intellectual, emotional, and practical capacities that are most needed in our current historical moment. Through reading poetry, writing poetry, and discussing the philosophy of poetry, we will deepen our connection to the mythopoetic forces that sustain us.

A four-week live workshop series for Blacks, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC)
​

Meets virtually
​DATE TBA SOON
​​Limited Space 


​Let's re-record the narrative! Give a new, fresh voice to re-tell our history, our way! In this generative live workshop, I will take you through what I learned in my research for my book, "Resurrecting the Bones: Born from a Journey Through African American Churches & Cemeteries in the Rural South."

Whether you're writing poetry, a short story, a novel, or creative non-fiction, I will provide tools that will inspire you to dig a little deeper...into your creative genius, archives/historical documents, what you know, and what more you want to know. ​​

​"Becoming Undone: Unpacking Life's Weight" 
​
A five-week series for those stressed-out and desperately needing to unload 

Unless you begin to re-write your story, it will remain the same. Over five sessions, you will be guided to look at what is burdening you and why, how to acknowledge it and address it (if only to yourself), how to begin to heal and move forward, and how to re-imagine and prepare for what's new. Of course, poetry will be at the center of your exploration. Videos guide each session.

"Awakening Presence: Poetry As Spiritual Practice"
​
A four-week series to bring you closer to your spiritual side

Art has a way of bringing us closer to our natural, authentic self, and it is there we can find the peace and presence of God*. This four-week series takes you through contemporary poems that help you to see, question, and honor your relationship to your spiritual self. No matter your religion or beliefs, this workshop inspires you to take more time to slow down, be present, and attentive to yourself and the things that make you whole. Audio of poems come with each session.
