Shapeshifting, polyvocal, multi-gendered, genre-bending, nonlinear, Bridgforth’s writing innovates form the way the ocean carves the coast: with sensuality, salty humor, aching grief and rage, and with vast, various, and invariable love. This volume—the first of two—includes essays, interviews, and witnessings by Alexis Pauline Gumbs, Sonja Parks, Stacey Karen Robinson, Sonja Perryman, and Robbie McCauley.
