As a companion to in lieu of flwrz: a hip hop musical, Hip Hop artist and playwright Miki Vale honors the spirit of loss through a book of rhyme, rhythm, recipes, and a selection of new plays. From song lyrics from her Hip Hop musical of the same name to memorabilia from a decade of producing Black queer events, this collection weaves fact, fiction, Hip Hop, theatre, and history. Plus, the most delicious vegan chili recipe you’ll ever encounter.
