Climbing Poetree CV
Praise for Climbing poetree reviews from distinguished allies "Each time I have the pleasure of attending a performance by Climbing PoeTree, I feel enriched, renewed, and inspired. Alixa and Naima insist that poetry can change the world--and it is true that the urgency, power and beauty of their words impel us to keep striving for the radical futures toward which they gesture." ~ Angela Y. Davis, political activist, scholar, Distinguished Professor Emerita, UCSC "Climbing PoeTree is a soulful expression. Alixa Garcia and Naima Penniman are deep thinkers and gifted poets. I am moved profoundly by the power of their words!" ~ Cornel West, philosopher, academic, activist, author "These stunning poems prove that there is something sacred, unyielding and deeply human in walking the path of rebellion. Climbing PoeTree offers us a language, a soundtrack, a heartbeat-rhythm for how to speak with courage." ~ Carlos Andrés Gómez, poet, actor, author "With vision and rhythm, Naima and Alixa's poems stretch from souls-deep toward the radiant pulsing horizon. Look and listen—Climbing PoeTree might take you exactly where you need to go." ~ Jeff Chang, hip hop journalist and critic, author of Can't Stop Won't Stop "This work is the glass shattering, a womb awakening, a brown scream. The exalted sound of a poet's heart. Warrior women, called writers. griots. our holders of truth and words and history. A book opening is also a birth. This is one child you will want to honor, rename and share with your tribe. This is the glory of water, a weight, a push of language we won't fear. -

Soapstone Celebrating Women Writers
Soapstone: Celebrating Women Writers Study Groups 2015 - 2021 ====================================================== Reading Claudia Rankine, led by Ashley Toliver Six Saturday Mornings, 10:00 to 12, April – May, 2021 via Zoom Few books of modern poetry have so handily met and captured the zeitgeist of our collective psyche as Claudia Rankine's 2004 book, Citizen. Published in the midst of the nation’s spreading awareness of police brutality, racism and the birth of the Black Lives Matter movement, Citizen became an instant classic for its everyday depictions of the micro-aggressions faced by Black Americans, for whom the personal is always political. www.poetryfoundation.org/poets/claudia- rankine What’s interested me about Rankine’s career is how her work has moved from the intimately personal— permitting us only mere glimpses of the surrounding world— to the largely collective in both voice and concern. When I first encountered Claudia’s work, I was a college sophomore. While browsing the poetry stacks of my college library, I discovered her first two books, Nothing In Nature is Private and The End of the Alphabet. Both books swept me off my feet with the intensity of their inward gaze. In this study group, I’m interested in exploring the transition in subjectivity and form that takes shape in the space between Rankine’s The End of the Alphabet and Citizen. We’ll also explore selected readings in the form of additional excerpts from her work, interviews, articles, and/or whatever else we discover along the way. It’s my hope that this class will be an open, easy-going space where we can discuss Rankine’s work with fluidity, ease, and good humor. -
