Abstract
This study investigates the therapeutic value of crafting anti-racism poetry in response to the escalating anti-Asian racism and discerns the transformative potential inherent in poetry and its capacity to foster empowerment. It explores an immigrant poet’s transition from writing themes of beauty and love to composing anti-racism verses amid the Covid-19 pandemic. The poet’s individual response to racism transitioned from passive avoidance to actively confronting it through the medium of poetry. Amidst the composition of the poems, the poet traversed a spectrum of emotions including discomfort, anxiety, stress, fatigue, and pain, yet also experienced resilience, confidence, and courage. The study posits that poetic expression transcends mere therapeutic benefits, serving as a catalyst for individual growth and empowerment, while also underscoring its transformative potential in combating racism and advocating for positive social change.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
