About the event
You are invited to join me for the online launch event for Swimming in Gilead, my new #poetry book that releases on October 10th, the same day as the launch event. This poetry reading and discussion with @caseycatherinemoore deals with themes of identity and relationship, the creative witness to collective trauma and healing, and respect for the seasons of ourselves and our world.

Cassie is a lesbian ecofeminist poet and novelist who lives in South Carolina with her wife. Her collection of poetry is her call to action, an invitation to each of us to examine what is within, and how, with the support of feminist advocates as friends, we can make something beautiful out of our “torn parts.” The poems within Swimming in Gilead were written under the loving kindness and acceptance of the Sisters of Gilead. By opening into vulnerability, the poems show readers how to “swim in Gilead” with hope and perseverance even as our rights as women are being ripped away. You can find video clips from several events on her website cassiepremosteele.com #poem #poems #intersectional #feminist #poet
