PROUST QUESTIONNAIRE 8: Pamela Sneed | Poet

Pamela Sneed is a poet, performance artist, and the author of several books: Imagine Being More Afraid of Freedom than of Slavery KONG And Other Works (Vintage Entity Press, 2009) and the chapbook, Lincoln (2014). 

Her poems and monologues have also been anthologized in The 100 Best African American Poems, edited by Nikki Giovanni. Recent publications include work in Best Monologues from Best American Short Plays, and Future Perfect, and the forthcoming Funeral Diva, which we cannot wait to hold in our hands. A committed teacher, spoken word artist, and activist, Pamela's work reaches communities everywhere.

We spoke with Pamela via zoom during the pandemic and the social protests against police brutality and murder of Black individuals. She had just completed her first piece of public art in Lower Manhattan, which you can see in a photograph on our podcast's website.
