Abstract
Included are a selection of poems shared by Yazmin Monet Watkins at the 2014 Race & Pedagogy conference. "A Lesson in this Queer African American Woman's History," was the opening poem for Angela Davis' speech and "Love Letter For Puget Sound," was performed at the Youth Speaks, Youth Summit. The other poems were shared at the What Now Is The Word evening performance. Although these poems were shared as a spoken word performance, it is important to share and document them in this journal as art and activism go hand in hand.
