Join The Movement

The So Whispers The World (SWTW) Launch Team will bring this gift of literacy, language and empowerment to children across the globe. As a movement, it enfranchises families, especially those within the African-American community, to engage with nature and one another in the practice of exploration and play as healing and resistance.
