February - Zoom Concert and Open Mic

30-minute Zoom Concert featuring e nina jay
e nina jay describes herself as a Black, Lesbian, Womon, Writer who uses poetry as a tool of survival and to break silences around all forms of violence against gurls and womyn, with particular focus on the intersections of race, sexuality, and poverty. As a survivor of incest and rape, I believe womyn and gurls can create a powerful community to fight against the violence and constant degradation that weaves itself into every facet of our lives, by breaking silences and unraveling shame. She has recently completed a 98-minute film called body of rooms, which features e. nina performing poetry and spoken word from her book of the same name. The film was shot in the summer of 2017 before the #MeToo movement reached critical mass.

She recently published her 2nd book, a collection of poetry, titled Bricks, Blood & Water

Followed by 90-minute Open Mic hosted by Nancy Scott

She hosted a monthly singer-songwriter circle at Patsy's Café in Austin for 9 years and she encourages new performers, while hosting the Living Room stage at NWMF every year.
