SUMMARY:BloodFresh & Home.Girl.Hood.: A Reading and Book Signing of Dual Poetry Collections with Ebony Stewart
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by Red Salmon Arts \nBloodFresh is a celebration of identity. Ebony Stewart reclaims her own narrative to speak against the racism and colorism she’s experienced\, while criticizing society’s treatment of women as sexual objects. This collection reaffirms the reader through storytelling as an open letter to retell\, acknowledge\, overcome\, and learn new ways to use poetry as a coping technique. As BloodFresh reflects the importance of owning your own space\, Stewart carves out a home for herself\, her poems\, and all of the readers who take refuge in her words. \nAND \nThe official re-release of Ebony Stewart’s latest collection Home.Girl.Hood. \nRings on every finger. Hood and educated AF. You’ve met her. Wearing all her feelings and responding with a side-eye or a tongue-pop. You’ve seen her. At the grocery store. In restaurants. On the subway. At the bus stop.
