Happy Black Herstory Month Beloveds! 🎊 ✊🏿 🎊

I hope we are loving, healing and being in solidarity with Black progressives in our lives. 🌺

In the spirit of BHM and Palindrome Day (02-02-2020), I'm excited to announce the release of my book “D1 L1F3 0F 1 B153XU4L BL4CK (B1BL) B10L0G15T.”

This is a book about Iboro Itoro. Iboro Itoro is an undocumented, bisexual, Black woman who is determined to survive in a society that constantly dehumanizes people like her. Although her determination does not shield her from the difficulties that come with being undocumented, bisexual, or Black, it gives her the courage to leave San Isabella in search of something better when there's nothing left for her there. This is a story about heartbreak and hope.

I will like to thank the undocumented Black writers at the first Undocumented Black Convening, my Black womanist/feminist friends, and the many progressive Black/Brown/Asian QTs in Detroit who believed in me and supported me throughout this journey. I am because we are.

I will also like to thank everyone reading this who will support my writing either through a purchase (http://themarket.storenvy.com/), or inviting me to speak at your school, panel, conference, or organization. I appreciate every one of you. Also, if you are unable to purchase thee book because of financial difficulties, send me a message and I will send you a free copy.

Lastly, (because of the encouragements of a beloved friend who believes in me) I will be hosting a book release party at my home on 02-22-2020. If you'd like to turn up with me, talk about the intersections of Blackness, Queerness, Woman-ness, and Migration, and rage against racism, patriarchy, queerphobia, and xenophobia, send me a message and I'll share the details of the book release party with you.

Although I'm hosting a party and this post is celebratory, I'm truly terrified about the future, but I'm fighting to keep my hope alive and remain somewhat optimistic. So, let's be terrified and somewhat optimistic together.

Sending y'all major love and warmth as we grieve, grow, hurt, and heal. We deserve the very best. We deserve to survive and thrive. 💕

With love,

Adilah Didi Adi (Dee WoministGRRRL)
