ABOUT THE COLLECTIVE: “The Daughter’s Tongue Collective aims to redefine what it means to be a woman writer. Our goal is to work with and bring together communities of multi-racial, multi-cultural and multi-identifying women. We want to create a safe space for women poets, writers, and lovers of literature to gather together and celebrate women’s art. The immense gentrification infecting the Bay Area is driving out young artists, specifically artists of color. With our Coalition we would like to help foster a community of multicultural women artists and reclaim a space that is rightfully ours. In this space women can gather together to create, perform, and support each other in their artistic endeavors in the Bay Area.”
