Muni Raised Me is a love letter to working-class San Francisco and an exploration of belonging; to a land that is not ours, that we will never own, but that we owe. Curated by Meymey Lee, Sasha Vu, and Celi Tamayo-Lee.
MUNI Raised Me showed at SOMArts from February - April 2023. Check out the virtual gallery here.
Here are some new things I’m trying in-community online.
Black Love: Exploring Black Imagination with Jewelle Gomez took place on Friday, September 17th in collaboration with Strut! a program of the SF AIDS Foundation. I had the joy and pleasure of talking with Jewelle Gomez, beloved author of many works including “The Gilda Stories,”. We celebrated 30 years of having Gilda in print and chatted about magic, activism, Black Lesbian Vampyres (of course!), and the creative process. If you missed the event, you can watch the recording here.

Capitol and Broad was a short film created in collaboration with the Queer Women of Color Media Arts Project (QWOCMAP). The film was based on a poem originally commissioned by the SFMoMA in 2019. I wrote, filmed, produced, and edited the short. It premiered in the Queer Women of Color Film Festival in June 2020.
I was interviewed by the African-American Shakespeare Company in April 2021 for National Poetry Month.
