Once every four years, we get an extra day of Black History Month! I’ll use it to spotlight Phillis Wheatley, the first enslaved African American woman to have a book of poems published. The @librarycongress has a first edition! #blackhistorymonth #poetry
This is such a wonderful week for Black women’s writing. The tradition is being tended.

Anything exceptionally good in the realm of what is called art started out feeling humiliating and most people just aren't cut out for that.
