smallgirl rising: connecting the Divine Black Feminine is an intergenerational transatlantic conversation where poets vangile gantsho and MoAfrika wa Mokgathi will lead a series of writing, poetry and music, cooking and breathing installations designed to encourage deep listening as a way of speaking into the separation that has made way for (and feeds off) the oppressive hierarchical systems of race, patriarchy, capitalism and erasure. Using indigenous healing modalities – we are invoking the names of black women whose names have been swallowed by time.
We want to see a world that is healed, or at the very least…in a dedicated pursuit of communal healing.
