About this Event
Calling All Creative Souls~
You're invited to Black River Thursdays – a music, poetry and storytelling event presented by Black River Life.
- Live Acoustic Band
- Open Mic & Storytelling for Liberation
- Featured Artist Performance by poetic superstar NDGO SISTA debuting her new persona: Ainee Mae
Ndgo Sista embodies her legendary persona Ainee Mae — a Spirit-soaked griot blending ancestral memory, hip-hop poetics and sacred rebellion. Equal parts truth-teller, healer and comedic conjurer, she delivers sermonettes that drag, heal and liberate in the same breath.
With decades of experience as a master bodyworker, trauma-informed practitioner and ordained minister, she brings hood humor, cosmic insight and sacred realness to the stage.
Ainee Mae doesn’t just perform — she arrives. And you won’t leave the same.
