I had the honour of reading at the MAYWORKS Poetry Marathon in Toronto May 1, 2011. I shared the stage with many great poets, including two of my favorites: Tara Michelle Ziniuk and Zoe Whittal.
The poem I read, No Les Da Verguenza (Aren’t They Ashamed), was published in OUR TIMES: Canada’s Independent Labour Magazine (May 2009). The poem is about my mom and my aunt and their experiences as women of colour at their places of work.
Enjoy!
