Meet Nikeeta, The Womanist Worker Wordsmith of #QueerWOC: The Podcast
Capricorn | Tool Box Mom
Nikeeta is your curmudgeonly but friendly neighborhood, proletarian Black feminist from the South. She has been involved in organizing and activism for the past decade. She’s been active in fights for environmental, reproductive, labor, and racial justice in Texas and New York. Nikeeta’s also presented at a number of conferences, locally, nationally, and internationally on black feminism, marxism, labor, and gender. When she’s not rabble rousing, she’s listening to disco/Philadelphia Soul, 80s r&b, and other old school jams, and tinkering in her makeshift basement woodshop-- in true dyke fashion.

I would spend time building things and working with my hands, and enjoying my weekly shift in the communal neighborhood kitchen
What’s one nickname you wish you had, but never did?
