You Have Been Planted Here to Create Something Beautiful,
eighteen writers and artists show what it means to be fully human. Through poetry, memoir, essays, and visual art, the contributors—all past or current students at Montgomery College, all living with a disability—share their insight, wisdom, and experience. With courage, humor, and imagination, they capture a world that appears both shifting and solid, that offers communion and solitude, that emits darkness and light. Resilience, obstacles, loneliness, joy, difference, acceptance, freedom, creativity—these are some of the topics they explore. Come join the journey!
