We have a million and one names for her… Popola, berga, toto, hoo ha, vajayjay, bits and pieces, yum yum, coochie, box, beaver, muff, honey pot… Never allowed to talk about her, she was always on the brain. We dote over her neurotically. We wash her, powder her, spray, sanitize, shave and wax her… We’ve been taught that she’s dirty and sully. The origin of sin… but did you know people worshipped pussy throughout history? Vulva flashing was like carrying a rabbit’s foot back in the day: in India, a flash of the cooch was used to disperse evil spirits, in ancient Egypt, women did it to get the crops to produce. Her power is so feared that some cultures have taken to mutilating her to rid her of the pleasure she can give.

On March 19th, in honor of Women's History Month, we reclaim our vaginas in all their glory! Latina-gina Monologues!

If you're interested in reading, get at me. Spots are limited and I'm sure it's gonna fill up fast... and yes, men are more than welcome to share their love what Keith Murray called, "the most beautifulest thing in this world." :)

The concept is simple: Tiki Hut provides wall space, ChangoBi finds artists to fill it and for one night all the artists come together for an opening reception to view the work and support the establishment. At each opening reception we will also have one featured poet who will perform a poetic reflection inspired by an art piece on the wall.

Our first showcase is this Friday, February 12th and it will feature 7 prints by ChangoBi which are being shown in NYC for the last time this year. After this showing the prints will be sent on a national tour to cities including Los Angeles and Miami.

Location: Rebel Diaz Arts Collective
: 478 Austin Place 2nd  Bronx, NY

Who?
My name is Lah Tere and I will be hosting Pearls of Wisdom BBW: Big, Beautiful Womyn reppin ' in the BX on Friday, Jan. 22nd. I am a proud BBW! I was born and raised in Chicago to Puerto Rican parents, and am an AFRO-BORICUA. I am 30 years old and a size 22. I shop at Lane Bryant and the Avenue, and when I can afford it, I purchase Baby Phat. I have been a BIG GIRL all of my life and have experienced the ups and downs of being thicker than the average.

How this event came about?
Well, I have tried to loose weight, I have been on every single diet you can think of… yeah YO-YO dieting. None of it has worked and if anything, has made me way bigger. I have had to deal with people telling me that I have a “pretty face” and that I should consider loosing the weight and then I would make it in the music industry. And if not, why don't I consider doing BBW Porn. WOW! BBW PORN!???? BBW PORN is not my choice or cup of tea. I know that I can live out my purpose and mission in this lifetime without baring my assets. Attention: THIS IS NOT A JUDGEMENT ON THOSE SISTERS WHO CHOOSE THAT LIFESTYLE. It's just not me!
(Please GOOGLE BBW and you will see what I am talking about regarding the pornography! )
So I was triggered and decided to put an event together of sisters like me, sisters that were PLUS SIZED or BIG BONED or had MORE TO LOVE and were positive!

My intentions are to bring womyn together that believe this:
Here I am! This is me! I am big! I am talented! I am bold! I am not afraid! I am beautiful and whoever doesn’t like it, can beat it! I don’t want to be your closet freak, or the woman who keeps you warm in the winter, the same one you ignore during the summer. I will not be that! I am in love with myself, and at the end of the day God loves me no matter how many cheeseburgers I eat. FYI- just cuz I'm big don't mean I eat 15 cheeseburgers! My comfort food is MY ART!!!!

Where?
I believe that 2010 is a new decade with millions of possibilities. I am excited about using RDAC (The Rebel Diaz Arts Collective) as a space for us BBW’s to express ourselves and be free. The Rebel Diaz Arts Collective (RDAC) is a South Bronx-based performance and multimedia space that aims to utilize culture as a means for education and self-empowerment in our community. We aim to provide an alternative to the profit-driven mass media that imposes values destructive to our community. By promoting a sense of community ownership, agency, and responsibility through the arts, we can begin to more effectively address the larger issues of gender, racial, and economic inequality in the South Bronx and beyond.

Please join us in this BIG, BOLD and BEAUTIFUL event. We will have Big, Bold and Beautiful Womyn poets, emcees, singers, dancers and visual artists sharing their art with a community that loves them for who they are!

Featuring: Storm, Mo Baby, Elsie E., Sally H., Chango Bi, Lah Tere, Fuerzagoddess, Adilka,Tigress Zoo, Ryss, Lindsey Renee and more!
