We Got Issues! A Young Women's Guide to a Bold, Courageous, And Empowered Life

In 2005 the We Got Issues team, Rha Goddess and J-Love Calderon traveled the country and gathered rants from over 1000 women, from Rikers Island to the Republican National Convention. They held community dialogues, rantfests, and Red Tent gatherings-and in We Got Issues! they present the poetry, essays and women warriors exploring the social, political and cultural landscape of young women's leadership. We Got Issues takes the reader on a journey through the hearts, minds, and souls of a new feminine generation as they speak honestly and courageously about the ten most pressing issues facing young women today, from money and racism, to relationships and motherhood.

This will consist of a photo, interview, and an excerpt of their art, if applicable; Black and white photos of performance, woman warrior, or otherGoddess, Rha is the author of 'We Got Issues!
