Pamela Sneed: America is Ready | Creative Capital Project
Learn more about America is Ready, by artist Pamela Sneed, Creative Capital Grantee 2023.
America is Ready-a book of epics is based on an unpublished epic poem Sneed started years ago having to do with the value of artists in a country that devalues them. It is predicated on Audre Lorde’s Poetry Is Not a Luxury and is meant to be a contemporary Howl from the perspective of a Black lesbian artist. It is more than 100 pages, a blend of satire, social commentary, and personal narrative. This epic began as America Ain’t Ready, but Sneed’s idea is to revise it based on these times and have it be the titular poem of a new collection, which would include new and epic poetry based on George Floyd, the Black Panther film, and travels in West Africa and South Africa, and focused on race, identity, gender, sexual orientation, and social justice.
