Girls to the Moon Campference – What is Consent?

She is a self-described Writer/ Performance Artist/ Dancer/ Activist/ Health Educator/ Everyday Magical Waterfixin HooDoo Woman and proud southerner. A natural sign watcher, very much in tune with her surroundings, Ms. Harris finds it almost impossible not to hear the stories hovering around people. Growing up in a multi-talented family, she always felt at peace pursuing her creative interests. However when it came time to choose a career, Cynthia chose to focus on her parallel interest in health and graduated from Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University with a BS in biology in 1999. Her subsequent work in the field of women’s reproductive health research fed her appreciation for the analytical and gave her the opportunity to study human behavior, leading her to not only be a vocal advocate for women’s health issues, but to create stories of empowerment. Her first performance piece, “Phrases of Womanhood”, has been performed since 2002 in Tennessee and Georgia by the Phoenix Ensemble under the direction of Ms. Helen Shute-Pettaway. Her performance piece, “Why Won’t She Leave?” has been presented nationally since its debut in 2005. View all posts by Cynthia C Harris
