This program explores the poetics inspired by From the Mississippi Delta. Saunte Harden-Tate, Nikki Patin, Mojdeh Stoakley and members of the Guild Complex will perform works written by Nina Simone, Beah Richards, Gwendolyn Brooks and other Black feminist poets and then perform their own pieces written as response, resulting in a poetic conversation about and for Black women.
This event is part of a series of community and post-performance events in support of Lifeline Theatre and Pegasus’ co-production of From the Mississippi Delta (April 27-June 18).
Event co-produced by Guild Literary Complex and Surviving the Mic.
