Hearts and Minds: Writing to Change the World

For writers who want to use words as tools for social transformation.

Grounded in a Neohumanist, universalistic outlook, this 6-week course explores advocacy journalism, persuasive rhetoric, and revolutionary writing through the voices of James Baldwin, Martin Luther King Jr., Rebecca Solnit, and Arundhati Roy. Weekly discussions and hands-on exercises develop ethical storytelling, critical thinking, and persuasive skills to craft writing that moves hearts, minds, and communities toward meaningful change.
