Becky Birtha

edit
  • ... that author Becky Birtha considers being black, a woman and lesbian not as barriers to writing, but as things to celebrate?
  • ALT1:... that Becky Birtha describes writing as a meditative and healing process that connects her to her Quaker faith?
  • ALT2:... that writer Becky Birtha self-identifies as an African-American with Cherokee, Catawba, African, and Irish heritage?
  • Reviewed: New author, not self-nominated, so author does not need to do a review; I (nominator) have reviewed Maria Elizabetha Jacson
  • Comment: New article from #ArtAndFeminism, moved from sandbox to article space on March 11, 2015, suitable for Women's History Month

  • New enough, moved to article space 03/10 nom 03/13, long enough 5809 char, no apparent close paraphrasing - direct quotes are marked properly, in-line citations support, neutral article. Many of the sources are off line AGF. I loved reading the "Accept It Gracefully" piece and wish more of the sources were on line. Alt1 is verifiable with the source cited and her description of how she came to know her faith and lesbianism are "rawly" honest. I prefer that hook. Really enjoyed the piece. Thank you!
