Amoke Kubat is a HeARTIST and Spiritual Culture Bearer, who is curious about self, the natural world, and the Sacred. She reclaims an African Indigenous Spiritual sensibility to reconnect herself and Black people to Earth and Water, as practice for holistic wellness.
Amoke is the creator of YO MAMA’s The Art of Mothering Workshops and YO MAMA’s House Cooperative. Self-taught, she uses weaving, doll making, clay and writing essays, short stories, poems, and plays, to continue to define herself and hold a position of wellness in an
America sick with inequalities and inequities. Her plays, “ANGRY BLACK WOMAN & Well Intentioned White Girl”, “Old Good Kit Kat and Good Old Kit Kat”, and “Opera of Memories” speak to this. Her current works in progress explore the impact of extreme political disparities in
urban and relational ecological living, activism for aging and disabilities for black women, and the medical gaslighting of Black women’s bodies.
