The people's project

poems essays and art for looking forward
curated by Saeed Jones and Maggie Smith
Book - 2025

In times of difficulty, with a government working against its own people, we must turn to our friends and loved ones to provide context, language, energy, and hope. The People's Project offers a range of perspectives, drawing wisdom from their communities and histories: from "know-your-place" aggression to "crip time" as a way forward, from finding strength in nature to how trans people provide a guide for the future, and how hope has everything to do with survival. We hope these meditations and strategies will provide you with inspiration and fortitude for the years ahead.--
