How it’s Glowing- our Lit from the Black! Fellows…
When you walk into a room full of Black women and NB folks and immediately feel like home and your cheeks hurt from all the laughter and joy of knowing you get to spend the next 8 weeks working together, and collectively honoring your creative birthrights–YOU JUST HAD TO BE THERE!!!
Lit From The Black 2024 Fellowship began on March 18th, 2024 with an earth quaking beam of light shining from BAM House headquarters, in the heart of the Black Arts District of Oakland, CA! Afro Urban Society Executive & Artistic Director, Nkeiruka Oruche, Lower Bottom Playaz Executive Director, Ayodele Nzinga, and Lighting Design Extraordinare Stephanie Anne Johnson sparked the embers for this year's cohort that is distinctively already on fire! Stay tuned for opportunities to connect, see their work, and to hire more BLACK WOMEN AND NB FOLKS FOR YOUR PRODUCTIONS!

In my ideal life, I speak up to 100 African languages. I write lesbian erotica in any language of my choice and its translated 100 ways. I drive only red cars everywhere I go. I eat a perfectly high vibrational diet of fruit and raw veg. I live on a mountain overlooking the ocean. I travel the world from tropical beach to tropical beach hosting Lesbian Love Fests. I am insanely rich off of my words!
