In light of recent events, Tale Foundry changed their prompt for this week. Honestly, things are out of hand right now. I love that Tale Foundry is doing their best to help in this time of change and crisis. All the donations from this week’s stream on Twitch are going to ACLU.
This time of change and fear of course brought an important name to my mind. Federico Garcia Lorca was one of the first victims in the Spanish Civil war. He was an amazing poet and he wasn’t afraid to speak up about political issues. As such, it’s so surprise that he was one of the first silenced in the wartime events of Spain.
Since I feel that his voice was also marginalized and discriminated against, I thought it appropriate to include excerpts from one of his poems in my submission for this week. Also, I gave the title a name honoring the concept of his poem. Feel free to check out my submission: Rivers of Lemonade on Tale Foundry’s website.
