Description
About the reading:
Josina received a MN State Arts Board grant to promote their new chapbook essay "Ride Safe: One dyke's journey to healing from the West Bank to the West Coast." The essay is framed around a series of solo motorcycle trips Josina took starting in 2005 and wrestles with three primary questions: What is "safety"? How does one's positionality inform when and how a person feels safe? And what is our individual role in community safety? You can read or listen to the full essay on Josina’s website, and Josina will be bringing copies of the chapbook on tour.
