Black Mother Black Matter: Ebook Edition

It is my story, but also the Black female community's story, for women who have been raped, molested, abused, who have miscarried or had abortions or who have lost their children, women who have been shamed, ridiculed, judged and abandoned by lovers, friends, and family, women who are passionate about change in society and healing all women. The poems reflect Goddess worship and succubus demonization, the transcendence of false Virgin Whore dichotomies, female repression and passion, birth and death, sexuality and redemptive spiritual devotion. "Mater" is the Latin word for mother, as well as educating (hence the Latin root of "matriculate"). Matter in the title is a play on Mother as well as education (i.e."the subject of the matter") or information ("the matter at hand"); also an allusion to the #BlackLivesMatter phenomenon, Black Mother Black Matter also refers to the Deep Void of the black hole of space, suspension in the gravity-less womb of the Source.
