Program Description
Louder Than Labels gives students a powerful opportunity to reclaim their stories and amplify their voices. Co-led by an educator and performing artist Oya Bangura, students explore, identity, stereotypes, and self- expression through poetry, spoken word, and movement. Students will examine assumptions “behind the selfie,” create identity maps, and turn their lived experiences into poems and performances that embody strength, joy, and pride. Their work culminates in a beautiful community celebration featuring their published book Louder Than Labels, delicious food, and heartfelt reflections. By stepping out of their comfort zones, students can show what it means to be seen, to speak out, and to thrive beyond labels—bringing the PEACE values of self-awareness, 21st Century skills, identifying a pathway toward career and college readiness, empathy, and brining their civic voice to life.
