Hi Friends,
I usually save this kind of thing for the newsletter but I wanted to share here and say Happy Black Poetry Day! I put in a ton of work as a performance artist, event host and producer in the Washington, DC area so it was very cool to get the call to be on air with 93.9 WKYS Angie Ang in the Morning Show.
I am grateful for the opportunity to have been highlighted amongst my talented friends Luki and New Vision. As a black woman I often feel abused, unprotected and as if we are a group most people care about the least. Through my poetry I try not only to fight the stigma of mental health but to simply tell the story of my life as a black woman. Black women, black people: your stories are important; it is vital that we share with the world.
Check out this YouTube clip and enjoy!
Good Vibes Always,
