Harris's poem "Crow's Sugar" was featured in the 2015 edition of Best New Poets.[2] She was featured in the anthology The BreakBeat Poets: New American Poetry in the Age of Hip Hop,[3][4] which the Huffington Post describes as a “‘mixtape’ spanning the time from Hip Hop's birth to its explosion.”[5] She is the author of How Much We Must Have Looked Like Stars to Stars.[6] Her work has appeared in Indiana Review,[7]Solstice Literary Magazine,[8] and Vinyl Poetry.[9]
Harris is the founder of the performance poetry collective The Strivers Row.[1]
Harris is an editor-in-chief of the Southernnew media publication Scalawag Magazine, which strives to spark “critical conversations about the many Souths where we live, love, and struggle.”[11] It publishes fiction as well as critical essays, political journalism, and poetry. In an article in The New York Times discussing new Southern alternative media, Harris was quoted thusly: “The South is not this homogenous place – it has a deep history, a really full history, and one that’s not just for the upper class... The demographics are changing. And ultimately, we believe that the South is going to be the voice that emerges to lead this conversation about trauma and healing, because here is where the trauma was the thickest.”[12]
