Talking "White"

  • Publisher: iUniverse

Talking "White" is a collection of lyric poetry that takes a hard look at the intra-cultural bullying that takes place within the African American community. With poems like "Ostracized," "Keeping it Real," and "The Post-Black Manifesto," Maria James-Thiaw skillfully brings cultural identity politics to light. At the same time she honors literary ancestors including Langston Hughes, Jean Toomer and others in her own family who rose above their circumstances and overcame obstacles. James-Thiaw bridges the gap between page and stage with a collection of poetry that is moving and emotional, unapologetically tackling tough issues. Talking "White" is a thought-provoking look at how a new generati...

A health care system built on bias and inequity, a system of policing that snatches our sons & daughters from our arms, and a pandemic painting a target on our backs - this is 2020 through the eyes of a black woman with chronic illness. If you've ever been dismissed, ignored, suspected, or accused by a healthcare provider, you will relate to these verses. ---- In this "Corona-cation"-created collection, Maria James-Thiaw delivers personal poetic reflections on chronic illness and mortality, race relations, and family history. The speaker's experiences form a colored chronicle of "Despair-ities" as fluidly surreal as Dali's melting clocks, in which she "folds up her somedays" in response to a...

  • Publisher: 2Leaf Press

BLACK LIVES HAVE ALWAYS MATTERED, A COLLECTION OF ESSAYS, POEMS AND PERSONAL NARRATIVES, edited by Abiodun Oyewole, extends beyond the Black Lives Matter movement’s primary agenda of police brutality to acknowledge that even when affronted with slavery, segregation and Jim Crow, racial injustice and inequality, black lives have always mattered. While written primarily by African American poets, writers, activists and scholars, selections are also from people of the Latino and African diasporas and white activists. Collectively, these 79 contributors provide a call-to-action that challenges readers to confront long-held values and beliefs about black lives, as well as white privilege and fr...

Nathaniel Gadsden's Writers Wordshop a 501(c)(3) organization began as an idea to bring a 'people's poetry venue" to the Harrisburg area. A chance meeting with Mim Warden, founder of the "People Place" Arts Center, lead to the formation of a wonderful relationship with her organization and the birth of Nathaniel Gadsden's Writers Wordshop.The name Writers Wordshop (which was supposed to be Writers Workshop) was actually a mistake on Mim's part, while she was completing an application to the National Endowment on the Arts. The name "Wordshop" stuck with us and we never let it go. As I was in the process of incorporating the Writers Wordshop, I discovered that there are other organizations nam...

The 3:15 EXPERIMENT comprises the results of an experiment in which the four authors rose at 3:15 A.M. every day in the month of August from the years 1993-2000 and wrote. Some poems, some prose, some dream-drenched euphoric scrawl, some devine journaling recording the weird magic of that middle hour. "In 1994...I was awake at 3:15 almost every night all August. This writing-by-alarm is one out of a large -- infinite? -- bag of tricks. The self outside the self. To get ourselves to pay attention differently, unawares" -- Jen Hofer. "The book is full of marvelous 'good times' as well -- with language, zones, emotions & political conventions... -- the stuff & dross & excitement of existing experimentally in the minds of four exceptional writers" -- Anne Waldman.
