Tesia Pennie is a creative. Using writing, painting and collaborations with other artist to express her thoughts and observations within the Black experience. Tesia is a Black Mexican Queer Womxn who uses her writing to express everything to music, culture, mental illness and how it impacts not just her personal life but how society tries to shape Black bodies. Tesia believes that writing is a powerful tool we have been using for decades to remind each other, we are not alone. We are worth it. All these obstacles in life are not the end for us. With our words, we can speak up and fight against White Supremacy. All you have to do is pay attention and Listen.

“Tell me of pain, what you know of it. is it to be feared, or guarded against like a tangible foe? Do you seek it, or merely accept it like an unavoidable opponent? is it to be welcomed, with open arms as an enabling experience? you tell me yours, I'll tell you mine” - Angela Davis
