She often performs at Take Back the Night events, LGBTQ events, pride events, trans* events, anti-war rallies, peace rallies, organizations against the occupation of Palestine, and groups focused on examining the wrongs of capitalism, patriarchy and white supremacy. She also works with a group called Vox Feminista whose model is to "comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable" on all these issues. Gibson grew up in Calais, Maine. She attended Saint Joseph's College of Maine. Later, she moved to New Orleans with her girlfriend. In 2008, Gibson became the first poet ever to win the Women of the World Poetry Slam in Detroit.
