About this Event
Join us in welcoming local author and poet, Maya-Gawonii, to the store for the launch of her debut poetry collection!
About the author: Maya-Gawonii Shabazz-Saleh is a Black, Indigenous, & Egyptian writer exploring the intersections of love, grief, & imagination. Her work tends to grief while imagining liberatory futures.
About the book: Moss Mother reimagines classic tales through the lens of Black Southern Gothic tradition.
About the moderator: Jamie is a practicing witch whose interest in paganism and witchcraft stems from a deep desire to reconnect with the folk traditions and nature-based religions of her European ancestors. Her practice is influenced by several traditions including Wicca, Reclaiming, and those associated with the feminist Goddess movement. Jamie is currently pursuing a PhD in Women’s Spirituality, where her research explores how witchcraft and paganism can function as antiracist praxis in the dismantling of whiteness.
