Spoken Word Artist who uses the art of poetry to inspire, awaken and uplift audiences.

A riveting performance is a performance that is so interesting or exciting that it holds the audience's attention completely. That's exactly what Rhonda Sekhmet Ra delivered at the 2024 Duplin County MLK, Jr. Celebration. The power of her words and delivery commanded the audience's attention. Her engrossing performance absorbed the entire audience's attention. Everything about her was captivating. From her ensemble, attire, and appearance to her demeanor, manor, and air; everything and every act constituted that of a revolutionary spoken word artist performing was with precision accuracy. Her performance was spellbound while intransitively informing the audience of the problems affecting African Americans and other racial and ethnic minorities.
Hearing, feeling, and being moved to action is what happens after exposure to the words from Poetic Empress Rhonda Sekhmet-Ra. Her words are a testament to her connection to the ancestral realm. She is a powerhouse, and dynamic speaker. Her poetry is inviting, truth telling, and inspiring. She writes from her soul, and her ability to connect with the audience is amazing. When she speaks, you are moved to silence, and want to partake in absorbing all that she has to say. Rhonda is the real deal, and she unapologetically speaks the truth.
