An Evening with Zuggie Tate: Poetry, Song, and Laughter

Rooted in her intersectional identity as a Black Trans woman, a larger-bodied woman, a person born into poverty, and someone living with invisible disabilities, Zuggie Tate's work uplifts the lives, voice, and resilience of Black Trans women while inviting audiences toward empathy, re-education, and acceptance. She is the recipient of the Margie's Hope 2023 Living Heritage Award, has been a Fellow with Twelve Literary Arts, Assembly for the Arts, and The Watering Hole. In 2025, she received the Cleveland Arts Verge Prize Fellowship. Sponsored by CWRU Department of Sociology and LGBT Center Open to the Community --- Event Details:
