Latina Poets Defy Fear on Stage
Description
A bold new collective of Latina poets, Mujeres Sin Miedo, electrified SparkFest in Fort Worth with raw, powerful spoken word performances that celebrate womanhood, resilience, and strength. Founded by Fort Worth poet Tammy Gomez and featuring artists like Leticia Alaniz and Eunice Nava, the group—deeply bonded as comadres—spoke truth to the complexities of motherhood, heritage, violence against women, and self-care. Their stage, adorned with personal items, plants, and a portrait of Dolores Huerta, embodied the messy, beautiful reality of womanhood. Festival director Jay Duffer hailed their linguistic brilliance, and the group’s open, evolving membership invites all women to join in fearless expression.
