Overview

Taking Back the Body is my journey of reclamation and self-discovery, challenging societal norms about body image. I wrote these poems as a testament to self-love and body autonomy. This collection asserts ownership over our curves, permissions, and stories. I hope you find the courage to reclaim your body and story as you read. -Talicha J., poet and teaching artist Taking Back the Body is a stunning reclamation manifesto for anyone who has experienced sexual violence. Talicha J. finds the clarity that is sometimes challenging for survivors. Her journey to chronicle the body illuminates a path of embodiment and empowerment. This collection explores reconnecting to desire with sensual, sharp verse. It's a beautiful reflection on making peace with your body after trauma. -Sara Beth Brooks - Activist and poet. I was today years old when I realized just how the history books will remember Talicha J. as a force of nature; as a beautiful haiku composed from shiny kindergarten glue glitter & construction paper; as a humanitarian with a heart as wide open as the possibility that we are all birthed from the same things that birthed stars. Taking Back the Body by Talicha J. is a true collector's must-have, so says the history books...so says the same stuff that birthed the stars...so says Time. -Charles Perry Jr:: CP Maze - 2-time Individual World Poetry Slam Finalist
