You are invited to a reading of poetry that shines a light on the plight of ordinary, innocent people in China today who are unjustly persecuted by the communist government—a government indirectly funded by you, me, and everyone reading this.

Submit to Read

Anyone published by the Society of Classical Poets in the Human Rights in China category just needs to send an email to host Damian Robin [email protected] with an SCP link to the poem. The first six spots will be guaranteed and receive a confirmation. Any additional time in the reading will be “open mic” for poems on freedom and human rights in China.
