DESCRIPTION:Come enjoy performances by radical Brooklyn poetic duo Climbing PoeTree and 
 Fired Up! members, while directly helping to fund a poetry and story 
 telling workshop by Alixa and Naima in San Francisco County jail later in 
 the week. \n\nSpace is limited so book ahead if you can. Sliding scale 
 pricing is available ($10-20) through BrownPaperTickets.  There will be a 
 limited number of tickets available at the door. If you can afford to pay 
 $20 please do so that those of us who are recently released, 
 unemployed/underemployed can attend.\n\nDoors open at 5pm for delicious 
 food. Performance starts at 6pm \n\nFired Up! is a grassroots network of 
 people who have been or are currently behind the walls of SF County Jail, 
 building community with others who are committed to breaking down the 
 barriers those walls produce. Together, we seek to build a vision of 
 community rooted in principles of healing, self-determination, and social 
 justice movement building. Fired Up! is a part of the California Coalition 
 for Women Prisoners, working to dismantle the prison industrial 
 complex.\n\nClimbing PoeTree is the combined force of two boundary-breaking 
 soul sisters who have sharpened their art as a tool for popular education, 
 community organizing, and personal transformation. Alixa and Naima 
 interweave spoke word, hip hop, and award-winning multimedia theater to 
 expose injustice, channel hope into vision, and make a better future 
 visible, immediate, and irresistible. With flawless cadence and impeccable 
 lyricism, they weave together their voices to tell powerful stories of love 
 and liberation, state and personal violence, social and environmental, 
 racial, and sexual justice, women's empowerment, and human 
 transcendence.\n\nThis event is also a time for us to share and celebrate 
 all the exciting work Fired Up! has been engaged in this past year to build 
 across jail walls in the Bay Area. We've collaborated with other amazing 
 individuals and organizations like CUAV, POWER, Critical Resistance, and 
 radical filmmakers. \n\nPeople of all ages are welcome. If you have any 
 questions about the event or venue, please contact firedupsf (at) gmail 
 (dot) com.\n\nWe look forward to sharing an evening of poetry, food and 
 movement building.\n\n
