SUMMARY:Cake & Prose: Tatiana Obey
DESCRIPTION:Cake and Prose is back! On Saturday\, April 12th at 6 p.m.\, we’re featuring local acclaimed author\, Tatiana Obey. Come join us at the South Dallas Cultural Center for a celebration of Black culture and Black women in fantasy and science fiction. \n  \n\nCake and Prose is a unique\, free literary event with a focus on genre fiction\, local talent\, and cake.
