A collection of stories and poems that takes on contemporary masculinity, and so creatively alters the expected plots. I love the playfulness and the weight of these pieces.
Thank you Donna Lee Miele @LillianHowan@patmatsueda@rachelkingpdx and so many others!!
Beyond thrilled that my story won the William Boggs fiction contest & will be published in @SLABLitMag!!

"A Raisin in the Sun" premiered in the Barrymore Theatre #OTD in 1959. This original poster is in the Library's collection. It was the first Broadway play written by a Black woman, Lorraine Hansberry, who was only 28 at the time. #WomensHistoryMonth
