In recognition of Lupus Awareness Month, Flare Fighters Fest presents a book reading and writing workshop with author and filmmaker Bridgett M. Davis. Her newly released book, Love, Rita: An American Story of Sisterhood, Joy, Loss, and Legacy, is a tribute to her sister Rita, whose life was cut short by lupus when she was forty-four. Love, Rita chronicles Bridgett and Rita's bond and sisterhood while exploring the persistent effects of racism in the lives of Black women. The author will read excerpts from her book and lead attendees in a reflective writing workshop.
