SILENT VOICES SPEAK: Another Victim

MISSION STATEMENT

SILENT VOICES SPEAK started out as Silent Voices: A Writer’s Workshop, as the first group at the drop-in center at the Broadway location of Community Counseling Centers of Chicago, whose purpose is to empower it’s attendees to form and attend their own groups.

We have branched out as an independent entity. We are silent no more. We say yes to the creative possibilities of life & art...

The mission of SILENT VOICES SPEAK is to give a voice to people who are disenfranchised. Many of the participants in SILENT VOICES SPEAK are also visual and/or performing artists.

Membership is open to all.

Another Victim

Another Victim

I am not the terrorist;

I condone not this war and others;

I voted not for our pretender president;

I can change not these events.

I protest until my breath disintegrates.

I support full my country;

I decry its sins;

I mourn the casualties.

I grieve my impotence because

I am the terrorized.
