Honey Sanaa is from Mississippi and currently lives in New Orleans. She holds two bachelor’s degrees in English and French and a Master’s degree in Secondary Education. She is the co-founder of Collective Hip-Hop: An Artistically Original Society or C.H.A.O.S. This campus-based organization is home to artistic students at the University of Southern Mississippi and gives them a chance to perfect their art, perform, and connect with others who share their passion. Honey has traveled from New York to Florida to California sharing her words with audiences as an individual and as a part of Team Slam New Orleans, affectionately known as Team SNO. Honey is entering her second year in slam and is already ranked 4th in the Women of the World Poetry Slam. She is the current Last Chance Slam Champion from Women of the World Poetry Slam 2016. In 2012 she published her first collection of poems entitled Firefly Kisses. In 2016, she published her second collection of works entitled Truth Be Told. Honey’s work focuses on the intersections of race, womanhood, coping with trauma, and body positivity in today’s society where all of these are undervalued and underrepresented. Through her work as a poet Honey hopes to provide other young women the encouragement that so many women gave to her. She is hoping to be the voice that continues to tell them “yes” when the world around them tells them “no”.
