Sisters Across Oceans (Sister Power)
HIWA: Hawaii to West Africa Poetry Exchange. The host for this show is Sharon Thomas Yarbrough. The guests are Daphne Barbee-Wooten, Kathryn Waddell Takara and Kimberly Keys.
The idea for this collection, Sisters Across Oceans, was inspired by the much needed conversation between influential Black women across the African diaspora. West Oakland to West Africa provides a sustained exchange to connect members of the African diaspora and Africa through creative writing. Their core values are to create a safe place for the transparent healing and growth of Black people; to deliver innovative and authentic forms of writing and to engage the medium of spoken word to shape and define the narratives of the diaspora; to allow a visceral and uncensored critique of social systems through artistic expression.
