testimonials
“A STUNNING performance! Lenelle’s spoken word artistry is profound and deeply moving. Her words, images, body language, and emotion offer new ways to see and understand human experience. There was nothing short of awe in the packed house last night! What a gift to the campus community to have Lenelle Moïse at [Ithaca College] as artist-in-residence for the week, sharing her passion and brilliance.”
—Carla Golden, Ithaca College, Women’s and Gender Studies
“Lenelle's visit was a huge success! Her ability to connect to and engage with our students was exciting. Students left the event inspired to write and tell their stories. They saw in Lenelle's work new possibilities for written and oral language. It was perfect!”
—Lesle Lewis, Landmark College, English
"Lenelle Moïse examines issues of race, class, gender and sexuality–issues that impact all of our lives–in a beautifully creative way that is all at once funny, sad, provocative, inspiring, and engaging. As we work on campus and in our communities to do the hard work of learning from each other and building coalitions to work for social change, Lenelle's powerful performance challenges the audience, with her incisive stories and poetry, to do just that. She is a much needed powerhouse of truth and inspiration."
—Kaite Dunn, Evergreen State College, student
