Join Wintergreen and Torch Literary Arts for our next Welcome Table Talk - The Sacred & The Secret: Writing the Women of the Black Church. Featuring Dr. Latorial Faison (Nursery Rhymes in Black) in conversation with Deesha Philyaw (The Secret Lives of Church Ladies) and moderated by Ashley M. Coleman (Good Morning, Love), this exciting conversation will explore the complicated dynamics of the Black Church and how they impact the women who uphold the institution.
How do respectability politics impact who keeps silent about harm within the Church? What is the interplay of desire and the sacred within the Church? And how have the Church’s rituals, practices, and seeming contradictions influenced the way we write? Join us for an exciting discussion of these questions and more.
This talk will take place on Tuesday, October 13th at 7pm ET via Zoom Webinar. You must have a free Zoom account to register.
