About Me

Who me? Just look up! Six foota in full effect - live and direct. Government name: Holiday. Spoken word name: LiquidMoon. Male alter ego: LiquidXun: the Flaming Stud.

To soothe the art jones me likes to spit and move. Spoken word, theater, movement, drag. Come check out a show to experience this fusion of polyartistry. www.lunawomyn.com
Been known to do my thing on the field and in the extreme sports arena (soccer, rugby, skateboarding, snowboarding, backpacking, and tennis...don't sleep the Williams sisters sure make it an extreme sport).
For pay and passion: One washed up Whitney Houston once fervently sang about the children been the future and they posssesing the greatest love of all. Well yes I'm apart of that camp. I'm an educator, youth worker, and activist. Full time, degreed and all. Goddess bless the youth.
Hail from the middle of the midwest, along the banks of the Mighty Mississippi, gateway to the west, the Show Me State. You guessed it: St. Louis, Missouri born and bred. Second generation of southern parents who were a part of the great nothern Black migration. From the fields of Mississippi to the streets of St. Lou my parents came. However, I've since lived in California, Virginia, Toronto, and temporarily in Cape Coast, Ghana, and Guatemala, Central America. I currently reside (and can't imagine leaving) the planet of Brooklyn, New York.
