We are so much water: Afro-Latina writers on writing across forms and in right relationship with self and so much more

In this interactive performance and panel, Yesenia Montilla, Jasminne Mendez, and Raina J. León share work from new collections that experiment and play across poetic forms and genres. They speak to embracing the embodied truth, moving with the waters that connect us, recognizing work in relationship to cultural communities, and dancing in boldness of the swagger of creation. They call out to you, “Come. Creation is the gift of your being!” Come and know: you never need permission to be the artist you already are!
