The Right to Write

The Right to Write is a special online auction benefiting Alicia Anabel Santos and her ongoing work as a writer, artist, and advocate for the freedom to tell our stories.

This auction is part of The Right to Write Benefit, taking place on September 19, 2026, and supports Alicia’s continued creative work, advocacy, and legal efforts following her experience in the Dominican Republic.

Featuring unique experiences, artwork, books, signed editions, creative offerings, and generous donations from artists, writers, and community members, the auction invites you to support the power of storytelling while taking home something meaningful.

Every bid helps protect and sustain the fundamental right to write, speak, create, and tell our stories freely.

You don’t have to attend the benefit to participate. Bid online, share the auction, and help us spread the word.

The Right to Write. Because our stories belong to us.
