<p>In Body Language, C.C. Carter gives voice to her layered truths of being femme, lesbian, black and latina in a society that sees her and thinks straight and African-American. From her Dominican roots (and all the complex history that goes with it), C.C. unfolds her girlhood attempts at assimilation and her adult acceptance of the power of her sexuality and her body's gifts. Body Language portrays C.C.'s voyage to womanhood, and she proves to be the best translator for the trip. This wonderful collection of C.C.'s performance work was well worth the wait. - Lisa Moore, Lambda LIterary Award Winner, Redbone Press</p>
