The Mother Tongue Monologues is a "show brings together a cast renown poets, activists and actors offering inspiring accounts about Black women, girls and sexual identity, intimacy, consent, agency, pleasure, desire and the role of the erotic. The performance unearths the painful history of rape and sexual assault against Black women and girls in America, takes us to the place where we can change the conversation and the dominant narrative, dares us to engage in more progressive Black sexual politics, define “sexual revolution” on our own terms, celebrate our bodies and our sexual selves." - Black Women's Blueprint website
The day after the Mother Tongue Monologues is Catharsis...An emotional release, occurring through art...spiritual renewal... or release from tension through expression. Used in healing, cleansing, and transforming experience throughout history.
