Black Queer Hoe
Black Queer Hoe | Britteney Black Rose Kapri
7 posts | 5 read | 3 to read
Black Queer Hoe is a refreshing, unapologetic intervention into ongoing conversations about the line between sexual freedom and sexual exploitation. Women’s sexuality is often used as a weapon against them. In this powerful debut, Britteney Black Rose Kapri lends her unmistakable voice to fraught questions of identity, sexuality, reclamation, and power, in a world that refuses Black Queer women permission to define their own lives and boundaries. Britteney Black Rose Kapri is a Chicago performance poet and playwright. Currently she is an alumna turned Teaching Artist Fellow at Young Chicago Authors. Her work has been featured in Poetry Magazine, Button Poetry, Seven Scribes, and many other outlets, and anthologized in The BreakBeat Poets and The BreakBeat Poets Vol. 2: Black Girl Magic. She is a contributor to Black Nerd Problems, a Pink Door Retreat Fellow, and a 2015 Rona Jaffe Writers Award Recipient.

I just launched a website and will be hosting a podcast come January 2021 called Of Prurient Interest. This project will be exploring obscenity and sexuality within literature and media. These are just a few books I hope to cover. Please go follow the Litsy I created for the project @OfPrurientInterest and check out the website! What books would y'all like to see covered?

Just a few of the books I hope to get around to talking about on my podcast, set to premiere in January 2021. Are there any books y'all would like to see featured? As long as there's something in there that the "normies" would find obscene, I'm down. ?

This collection is raw, rude and crude.
If you don‘t like swearing or a lot of sex then really don‘t bother, you will hate this!
I found some of this really challenging to read and that‘s kinda the point, she doesn‘t care and is all about her own worldview which isn‘t seen that often.
I often didn‘t like what I was reading but then when something hit the right spot it was great.
Not for everyone but I liked it overall

Weaponxgirl Going to say what I didn‘t like in spoiler below me 6y
Weaponxgirl I didn‘t like when she talked about sleeping with other people‘s boyfriends in her poems. I love someone normally that doesn‘t give a shit but a lot of how she spoke about it really made me personally uncomfortable. Like a poem where she calls out a guy who says he doesn‘t like fat people whilst getting nudes from her behind his girlfriends back. That sort of stuff just isn‘t for me. 6y
SW-T Good review and the spoiler was very helpful. 6y

I liked this, we will get no cookies from her for reading her book. It wasn‘t written for me and I‘m glad.

What started as a fairly amusing poem hit me at the bottom.

A powerful, slim volume of poetry that I picked up this morning at the library and finished in one sitting. Excellent, intense, and not written for my consumption. All the more reason to seek it out.
