Hey sugar cubes. Here's a bio:

Yvonne Onakeme Etaghene is an Ijaw Urhobo Nigerian dyke poet, performer, dancer, and playwright. Etaghene wrote and acted in two one-woman shows. She is the author of For Sizakele, a novel that addresses transcontinental identity, intimate partner violence and queer gender identity.

In short -- I make videos and I write a lot. I also design clothes and I share inspiration vids/vlogs as I am moved/called to. You can find my book, For Sizakele, at the link below.

Dive in and enjoy my work.

Much Love,
Yv.
