about

Debut spoken word poetry album from Ty.Brack.

All proceeds from this album will be donated to Taking Ownership PDX, a Portland, OR based non-profit with a goal to "renovate and revive Black-owned homes that have requested our help, with an emphasis on enabling Black homeowners to age in place, generate wealth and simultaneously deter predatory investors and realtors to deflect the gentrification process" (qtd. from takingownershippdx.com).

The goal is to raise $500 for Taking Ownership PDX, which equates to about 85 full album buys. Updates will be posted to @ty.brack.poetry on Instagram to keep the money flow transparent. Let's get it done!

Update: We did it! We blasted the goal, actually. We raised $606.77! Proceeds will continue to be donated to Taking Ownership PDX as sales continue. Thank you all so much!
