Performance at SAFI FAYE STAGE (HKW)

Savanna Morgan, a Neo-folklorist, musician, poet, and performer from East Texas, explores the blues as a form of Afro-diasporic storytelling, carrying the complexities of Black histories. Her work fosters conversations within the Black diaspora around its histories, joy, and healing. Her anti-disciplinary lecture, "Transbluesencies: A Poetic You Can See Through," is an invitation to explore the intersections of blues lyricism and Black feminism, as well as Black linguistic folk traditions that question written texts/printed matter as a core modality of poetic expressions.
