Hey friends! Just letting you know that I won’t be hosting open mic poetry at books and brew tonight. It’s possible someone else will step up to host, but I can’t guarantee it.
I had emergency oral surgery on Wednesday and my face is like a frostbitten chipmunk. Sorry for the let down!

Click through to find an incredible article by Ms. A Washington.
Required reading:

“Performative allyship can obscure the need for deeper struggle and pacify calls for justice. It often shifts the spotlight away from oppressed people – marginalized, Indigenous, and especially Black voices – and onto White comfort, or worse, White privilege.”
A #Solseed Joint
“A prompt, a pulse
—a purposeful
soul to water a seed.
