I am Sherrie Wilkins. I typically go by Sherrie Yvette when on stage!
Ofcourse I’m a poet who is also a truth and storyteller. I’m proud to be an educator who writes to challenge us all to slow down to stop and think about our lives outside of our daily walk.
I am the author of 2 books! The most recent is titled, It’s Love: Poems and Prose from the Heart. Which is written with my husband who’s a musician so you can find our album with music and the poems via all places where you stream music!
I have been honored to receive New Jim Crow Poetry Award for my poetry as it relates to social justice! My poetry has appeared in the Classic’s Capital Area Poetry Anthology, and I am grateful that my work resonates with readers across generations. I’ve spoken poetically to 1000’s of youth in my day. Through my poetry, I hope to encourage others to embrace their own voices and to reflect deeply!
