Other Countries, Black Queer Expression, 2024 Winter Solstice Reading
By presenting the work of Black queer writers, past and present, Other Countries' readings celebrate our voices, honor our ancestors, and foster reunions and new connections. Our early readings were hosted by The Studio Museum in 1989, The Lesbian and Gay Center, and other venues throughout the 1990s and 2000s, and were revitalized in the 2020s at the Gene Frankel Theatre, the CUNY Graduate Center, The LGBTQ Center, and now The Poetry Project. Celebrating Black Queer Expression, Other Countries’ 2024 Winter Solstice reading will feature invited wordsmiths and provide opportunities for open-mic readers selected on a first come, first sign-up basis.
This event will also be livestreamed for free on The Poetry Project's YouTube channel.
