Phew! What a whirlwind week…I’m writing with a couple quick updates:
First: #GraffitiGrrlz received it’s first academic book review in TDR: journal of performance studies penned by Indigenous Hip Hop Studies scholar Jenell Navarro! You can read the full review here!
“Graffiti Grrlz introduces readers to a history of women #graffiti writers who have not been afforded representation in #hiphop studies or #feminist studies by foregrounding their own agency and voice.”
Second: My local arts and wellness organization is running a really great workshop for girls! And it is just so humbling when your work gets picked up and utilized by local activists. I feel seen and am glad these #graffitigrrlz do too! “Future ‘Graffiti Grrlz’ Workshop” hosted by @opositivefest on 3/15 for #WomensHistoryMonth!

Last, but so not least, is an announcement that through March 31st 2020, @NYUpress is celebrating #WomensHistoryMonth with an eBook sale and #GraffitiGrrlz is only $1.99!!! The eBook has COLOR images, DO IT!
