About Taiwana
A Black trans woman with disabilities, Taiwana Shambley is an abolitionist fiction writer, teaching artist, and spoken word artist from St. Paul’s North End neighborhood and based in Minneapolis. Using black radical tradition and anger as a guide, she writes, teaches, and performs fiction to empower queer, trans, and disabled youth in the Twin Cities. She is a 2024 Loft/MISA Excellence in Teaching Fellow, a 2023 Minnesota Colleges & Universities Write Like Us Mentor; and you might’ve seen her face on the cover of Minnesota Women’s Press. Her fiction has been recognized with grants from the Loft Literary Center, CURA, and MRAC, and her work as an educator has been recognized with the 2023 MISA Excellence in Teaching Fellowship and 2022 PEN/Faulkner Teaching Fellowship.
