What is Witness to the League of Blond Hip Hop Dancers : a Novella and Short Stories about?

<p>In a novella and 11 stories, widely published author and dancer Donna Allegra presents a lyrical and stirring portrait of black lesbians set against the backdrop of West African, jazz, and hip-hop dance. In each story readers inhabit the skin of women who live for dance, women who work and love in a world in which bodies are disrobed and constantly on parade but where lesbian erotics are rarely spoken. But for all these lesbians, women come first in importance-an uncommon stance in the new mythology that paints black women as self-sacrificing towers of strength waiting to exhale.</p> <p><b>Donna Allegra</b> is a poet and dancer living in New York City. Her work has been published extensively in magazines, and anthologies, including <i>Best Lesbian Erotica</i>, <i>Hers</i>, <i>Does Your Mama Know</i>, and <i>Lesbian Travels.</i> She is the winner of the Pat Parker Memorial Poetry Award and was a runner-up for the Audre Lorde Poetry Prize in 1994.</p>
