#Repost from Essence.com “Ntozake Shange, the blueprint for so many young Black female writers, poets and playwrights, passed away Saturday morning at an assisted living home in Bowie, Maryland, her family announced on social media. She was 70. Her critically acclaimed choreopoem, For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide/When the Rainbow is Enuf, could be considered a bible for so many Black female writers.” SIP Queen !
