  • Poetry, Journaling and Self-Expression for Black Women with Theresa tha S.O.N.G.B.I.R.D.
    Jun 1 2023
    Theresa tha S.O.N.G.B.I.R.D. is the sound of a new generation. She is a magical, alchemical, viral Poet and Author of the poem “You So Black.” Theresa is a performer of many talents including poetry, empowering children’s literature, vocals, and acting. She has been a Keynote Speaker at corporate events and educational institutions, made television and media appearances and performed at festivals and conferences. In a true monument to Black women, Theresa showers us with the power of her words: inspiring us to be intentional with our beauty, allow ourselves to be soft, and trust our intuition. She shares how she worked through imposter syndrome and learned to express herself through making her own clothes, curating her one-of-a-kind public image and extending her self-love to kindness towards others. If you ask Theresa what makes her so expressive, she will tell you that she inherited her mother’s “delusional confidence.” Bask in the magic of Theresa tha S.O.N.G.B.I.R.D. and prepare to be invigorated by your own power.
