On Feb. 18 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. the High Low Cafe on 3301 Washington Ave. hosted a Black History Month celebration biscuit brunch event in collaboration with Left Bank Books, Spitta’s and Scribes Writer’s Group and the Kranzberg Arts Foundation.
Included in the brunch was a brisket focused menu, spoken word poetry by Black poets on their life experiences and the importance of liberation, and book pop-ups. The free event welcomed everyone.
Jared C. Lewis, who describes himself as a lyricist, was one of the numerous Black authors who performed his poetry on stage at The High Low at around 11 A.M. and is photographed here. Lewis also has a published poetry collection book titled “Quarantine Chronicles” which was published in 2021.
