    We bask in decisions we have already made and dance in the reward of work we have already put in. My unborn children are dancing circles around my womb.

    We are south of Senegal, maybe Guinea, maybe Ghana, or maybe as far east as the Congo.

About Me

My name is Yecheilyah (e-see-li-yah), and my work confronts historical erasure and advocates for a more inclusive understanding of Black history. Through my literature and poetry, I uncover and preserve the rich, often underrepresented stories of African Americans. I also host an annual poetry contest.
