Martina Davis-Correia’s birthday was yesterday and today, Mother’s Day, is a fitting day to honor this Mother, this Sister, this Warrior. The video-poem below was written by my friend Kenneth Foster Jr, who is currently serving a life sentence in TX and was formerly on TX’s death row. Deep gratitude to the poets who so beautifully read Kenneth’s words: Samantha Thornhill, Remi Kanazi Aja Monet Bacquie, Jessica Moore, and RodStarz from Rebel Diaz. Powerful words, powerful voices…and a powerful woman who inspired them.
