From the Marrow collects nine ritual / jazz performance texts by Sharon Bridgforth, including lovve / rituals & rage , no mo blues , dyke / warrior-prayers ,blood pudding , con flama , love conjure / blues , delta dandi , River See , and dat Black Mermaid Man Lady / The Show. Rooted in blues and bristling with the voices of ancestors, lovers, aunties, neighbors, and friends, these texts document Bridgforth's thirty-year practice of deep listening, collaboration, and care. Shapeshifting, polyvocal, multi-gendered, genre-bending, nonlinear, Bridgforth's writing innovates form the way the ocean carves the coast: with sensuality, salty humor, aching grief and rage, and with vast, various, and invariable love. The volume includes essays, interviews, and witnessings by Stephanie L. Batiste, Omi Osun Joni L. Jones, Alexis Pauline Gumbs, Robbie McCauley, Sonja Parks, Sonja Perryman, Stacey Karen Robinson, and Nia Witherspoon.
