Demetria Blooms (she/they) is a Black, queer, fat, disabled artist, andspiritual practitioner from South Carolina. Their work draws from livedexperience and spiritual practice to create art that affirms, evokesemotion, and invites collective care and transformation.Reminder - We Got Us is both a declaration and a love note. It is anaffirmation for Southern trans folks and others who are being toldthey do not belong. But we do. We always have. The South is notonly a site of oppression but also one of rebellion, resistance, andradical care. In the face of violence and erasure, our people havealways found one another. We’ve always made a way. This piece isa reminder that we still do. No law or institution can erase ourtruth. No act of censorship can take away our right to thrive, tocare for one another, or to dream freely. We are still here. We arenot going anywhere. 7Reminder: We Got Usby Demetria Blooms
I was too little to recall, but I hear there were yellow butterflies at my firstbirthday party. Eastern Tiger Swallowtails, no doubt. At my college graduation,Palmetto Trees framed photos of me with my degree. My whole life, I’ve beensurrounded by the glorious and burdened beauty of the South. I rememberplaying in puddles of red clay, and seeing the heat create cracks in the mud atmy family’s junkyard. My favorite people in the world smell like home; scents ofred dirt and mountain air and a day of hard work wafting towards me as theywalk through the back door in the evening.Just as thousands of years of rain has dulled our mountain ranges, years ofbigotry dulled my queerness. I learned that taking a woman lover was somethingto be hidden - like crawdaddies hiding in their underwater caves from afisherman. No longer. Now, it is not just my right, but my duty as a southernqueer person to be out - to be proud of not just who I am, but where I comefrom.I remember running out into the woods on our propertywhen I realized I was gay - and what this realizationmeant for me here. It was freshly springtime, with busybees floating on the passing breeze. There were wildonions poking up around me and the trees were finallyputting on their greenest drag. My grandmother hadtold me that I wouldn’t be shunned in her home. Mygrandmother, who grew up playing in the same creeksand hollers I played in, who was raised in a devoutlybaptist home. I felt very heavy and very light at thesame time. I am so lucky. I have never been shunned by my family - and certainly never bythe foothills I call home. Table Rock, looming to the west on my horizon, hasnever looked down its rocky nose at me. The oak trees and their acorns havenever called me a slur. The shark teeth I hunt for on Kiawah Island have neverwhispered about my damnation. No, the South has never passed judgementagainst me. The South is my home. I learned to walk and talk and sit on the commode here.If I have the privilege of growing old, it will be in these hills and hollers. My life- though short by many standards - has been spent wandering throughmountain trails and beachy shores. I’ve travelled - yes. But I know I’ve gottenhome when I see the familiar peaks of the Blue Ridge Mountains rising abovethe skyline, when I can smell sweet tea brewing on the stovetop. 8Finding Liberty: A Portraitof My Daughter by AndreaDowns (she/her)“A Love Letter to the South”by Jensen Smith (they/them) – (Abridged Version)
\My friends, deepest loved onescontemplate leaving this land.The place of our forefathers,where our kin has laid to rest forgenerations, and they want toleave. I simply will not. I couldn’tleave this place, as it will alwaysbe in me. In my drawl, in the wayI cook my cornbread, in the way Isearch for Mountain Laurelsevery spring. Everything about me has the scent of red dirt and mountain air and a day ofhard work. I wake up every morning and hear our Carolina Wrens singing mehello, and go to bed listening to tree frogs and bullfrogs croaking goodnight. Mypeople - southerners and queer folks - are not meant to be estranged. We’re notmeant to hide away from each other in our separate boxes on a shelf. We’remeant to be out, proud, fighting for our home - together. The fight will be hard -yes. But what southerner ever shied away from a fight worth having?Of course I will stay and fight for our home. No one born and raised here givesup easily. We’re tough - bred with the coal they mine from our mountains litinside our chests. No man in asuit, waving agavel around ina stuffy roomcan tell methat I do notbelong here.9There's Too Many Of Us Crying - State abortion bans harmmore than 15 million women of color, Linocut on map of USA byAndrea Downs (she/her)Lovers by Sophia Ludt (she/her)

The above Waystation painting was inspired by theACLU of North Carolina’s short film, North Carolina'sAbortion Story, that was released in Spring 2024.The film inspired Andrea Downs (she/her), artist,activist, and founder of The Laundry Line, to create aparticipatory art piece that expresses solidarity,appreciation, and support for abortion providers.Back in September 2024, she invited communitymembers to submit messages of love and support forabortion providers, which were incorporated into thepiece. The messages are reflected in the paintingand were printed on notecards so that providers canread the full messages. Waystation is “a symbolic representation of thepositive and uplifting energy that sustains, supports,protects, and deepens relationships. Each paintedflower was carefully selected to communicatestrength, healing, hope, resilience, joy, adaptability,transformation, and courage.”Waystationby Andrea DownsArt by Rowan Pax (it/they)Rowan Pax is a non-binarypixel artist based inColumbus, Ohio.

The Three Sisters of Roe is an art installation of assembled sculpturesthat vividly reimagines the impact on women when we lack control ofour bodies, as well as a way to reclaim our rights. Together, theThree Sisters of Roe embody Rage, Rights, and Revelation — thepersonal and political pathway to women’s full reproductive rightsand personal autonomy. Meet Furiana, the first of these “Sister sculptures,” a subverteddepiction of Elizabeth I, whose primary strategy for retaining herpower was to remain the “Virgin Queen” for life. She also haselements of a reimagined Greek Fury, whose role was to enactretribution on those who had committed grave social wrongs. Todayshe directs her fury at those politicians driving repressive legislationand Supreme Court Justices who overturned Roe v. Wade.Furiana is a 6-foot tall black female assembled sculpture attired inregal Tudor garb, black with flaming red and gold accents, but herinnate vitality has darkened and desiccated because her powerdepends upon having reproductive choice.The Queen’s signature red hair hashardened into a mass of copper wirecurls, her Elizabethan ruff a snakeskin.Her bodice is adorned with matchesand buttons of dried bittersweet (anherb used in abortion teas), andtabbed with men’s ties, trophies ofthose who have tried to control her. Yet she stands at the moment oftransformation, defying further decayand channeling her rage towardsgenuine somatic sovereignty. “Fury Embodied and Reimagined”by Diana Newton, (she/her)18

“Eros’ Favorite Plaything”by Kylie Brooks (she/her)Broken arrows and splintered woodSnapped from the back ofHis favoriteProspect.Sharp stakes protruded from their backAs it ached,Carrying the weight of every failed andForgotten love.Eros cried tears of ichorFor his toy,Mixing with the bloodOn their back in a shimmering poolPoor mortal,Never longed for norLoved enough to remain,Constantly drawing Cupid’s attentionRight back to the heart of it all.Lust. Love. Obsession.To no avail.No arrow of any kind nor anyDivine favor could redeem hisPlaything.Eros wept for his trophy,Wept along with them as they grew oldAnd faded away in every lifetime,With no one to fade with them.The flame of love remained extinguished,No amount of oxygen or hope or powerBringing it back to life.Over and over,as the torch was passed,It would be put out by another,Ruining Eros’ mortal.Poor little mortal,Lost to love and painAnd sweet sufferingNo help from HimerosNor Aphrodite couldEase the pain they shared.Venus wept for them.Eros, for his failed arrows,And his mortal,For their failed and broken love.Arrow after arrow,Love struck true.But never forEros’ favorite plaything.Art by Pattricia Guthrie (she/her) 22

“Lady Love” by Eva Luna Billie Holiday throws her voice out,a lasso in the sky, pulls down the moon for her beloved Tallulah Bankhead.They climb into a crater, fly into the air, as the moon ricochets back into the night.Bessie Smith and Ma Rainey are cozied up in a crater, slow dancing to a song of their ownmaking.Gladys Bentley struts around in her tux,belts her worried blues, her voice full as a trumpet fit to burst,her bowtie a glittering lilac, her wife snapping her fingers, keeping time.Lucille Bogan, Ethel Waters, Alberta Hunter, Rosetta Tharpe,arrive in twos, fingers linked.They shake off the stardust in theircoats,songs building in their chests.From the earthpeople can see gardenias bloomingon the moon.Eva Luna (she/her) is the author ofthe chapbook, Sonder, which shewrote during her residency with the“Writer by Bus” program in Roanoke,Virginia. Eva has appeared in over 20literary magazines. In her free time,she enjoys singing, drinking tea, andreading graphic novels.
