Moor Mother

Moor Mother

Apocalypse has come and gone. We’re just grubbing in the ashes.
– Samuel R. Delany, Dhalgren

The end is already over. – Moor Mother’s jacket

Moor Mother is a musician, Philadelphia based housing activist and black quantum futurist. She reminds us of Sonia Sanchez speaking about how she became “this woman with razor blades between her teeth.” She takes unexpressed thoughts, disgusts, and desires, and flings them against the long silence of history.
