American Sex Tape: A Book Launch

In American Sex Tape, Jameka Williams captures the reader’s gaze and stares right back. In this stunning debut collection, Williams offers a deeply personal investigation into how Americans (herself included) have been duped, buying into classism, sexism, and racist beauty ideals, while sacrificing self-love and self-determination. With whip-fast profanity and fiery humor, she charts a tender, exalting, and vibrant path to freedom from mirrors, stages, and screens.

Fiercely feminist, Black, American, and powerful, Williams speaks for a generation of obsessive social media influencers and consumers, revealing the complex ways in which we are actors and witnesses, and victims in our public and private performances. Though we may be permanent residents of this soulless cultural landscape, this stunning collection refuses to let it define us.

Join us for a limited-capacity in-person book launch event and discussion with Jameka Williams and Kemi Alabi. Book signing and reception will follow.

****Masks and proof of vaccination are required for all attendees. Doors will open at 6:00 PM.***

This event will also be recorded and a link to the recording will be shared afterwards with all attendees.
