The show, which addresses such issues as drug addictions, relationships and self-esteem, also serves as the inspiration for a soon to be released book that will share the “Black Girl Speaks” title. The book is also authored by Coverson, who uses the penname Jess Carpenter as homage to Jesus Christ, her spiritual inspiration and guide.

This show is for everyone that seeks healing and restoration, It holds up a mirror to everyone who attends and forces you to identify your strengths and weaknesses.

It's called ‘Black Girl Speaks’ because it's told from a black female perspective, but there is something for the masses.

Poet, Playwright, Producer


The show itself is constantly evolving as I do. Each piece is one that is held close to my heart, because it was either my own experience, the experience of someone dear to me, or the experience of someone that has spoken through me. The purpose of this show is to be a vehicle for artistic expression and the projection of our stories. It is to allow the “black girl” that has touched all of us to voice her triumphs, sorrows, thoughts, and history.

The BIO

Through numerous speaking engagements, poetry venues, and countless inspiring conversations, Talitha V. Coverson, has been described as nothing short of extraordinary because of her performance and inspiring spirit. Though her talents are innumerable, some of them include spoken word, stage performance, directing, educating, empowering through speaking engagements and workshops, and writing. Her anthology of poetry is her first of many future publications and serves as the platform and current script of her one-woman show, "Black Girl Speaks."

"Black Girl Speaks" is more than a show. It's a MOVEMENT! The purpose of the show and her speaking engagements is to be a vehicle for artistic expression and the projection of untold stories. It is to allow the "black girl" that has touched all of us to voice her triumphs, sorrows, thoughts, and history and to incite healing through dialogue. "Black Girl Speaks would not exist if it were not for the many women who came before me that were unafraid of speaking out in various forms," says Talitha. "Through this venue, I honor these women."

 

As a member of the BackTalk Poetry Troupe and the Black on Black Rhyme Poetry Collective, Talitha has traveled domestically performing excerpts of her onewoman show in Atlanta, San Diego, Tallahassee, Tampa, Minneapolis, Detroit, and Rochester, New York . Her travels have also granted her the opportunity to perform internationally in Amsterdam and Venlo, The Netherlands, Paris, and Banjul, The Gambia. Black Girl Speaks was originally produced in its entirety in Tallahassee, Florida at the Aakhet Center in collaboration with Javonte Adams and Off the Cuff Productions.

Talitha recognizes that "Black Girl Speaks," could not have been made possible had it not been for the support and appreciation of art by many. The debut performance in Tallahassee served as the foundation for a series of future productions. Your support in the purchase of her products and services, not only allows this path to continue, but it also creates a path for others to tread. Among being the CEO of B.G.S.
