Two X Chromosomes with an Extra Shot of Melanin

With the advent of the Women's March, intersectionality has been much of the focus of this latest wave of feminism. As a black woman, Dara Kalima poetically explores what it means to live at the corner of black person and woman. She pens poems about oppressions she's faced based on race and gender and then addresses what happens when those oppressions converge. "Two X Chromosomes with an Extra Shot of Melanin" is an eye opening poetic telling of what life is like at the intersection.
