Her performance called on society to look inward before pointing outward.
To examine what we accept.
What we normalise.
What we pass on.
And what we have the power to change.
It was a performance that held up a mirror and asked society to take a good look.
Sometimes poetry does not give us answers.
Sometimes it asks us to face the questions.
Thank you, Gagoope, for giving us a letter that asked all of us to look again.

For the Sheroes who came before us. ๐ŸŒบ

Motlatsฤฑ Mogorosi gave us an electric poetry performance at the Open Feminist Fair.
Her poem paid homage to the sheroes whose work, courage and greatness helped shape the world we inherited.

But it also carried a lament.
A lament for the greatness we have sometimes failed to recognise. The stories we have allowed to fade. The women whose contributions deserve to be remembered.

It was a tribute to the sheroes, and a reminder that remembering is also an act of honour.
Thank you, Motlatsi, for giving our sheroes their flowers through poetry.

Some words arrive softly, but stay with you. ๐Ÿ’œ
At the Open Feminist Fair Louisa April shared two pieces from her book ๐—•๐—ฒ๐—ณ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ ๐—ฌ๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐—Ÿ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ ๐— ๐—ฒ.
One of them was a nameless poem dedicated to womxn who have been told they are too loud.
Her reading was soft and beautiful. It gave us a moment to pause, listen and sit with the words.
Because being told that you are too loud does not mean your voice has no place. Sometimes, it means your voice needs to be heard.
Thank you, Louisa, for sharing your words and your softness with us.
