McFarland's poetry publications include: Tracks of My Tears, 13 Ways of Looking at a Black Girl, and Identifying the Body. Her most recent curatorial project, SALLY, a title referencing Sally Hemings, explores how contemporary conceptions of white/black, male/female, young/old, rich/poor reflect or disrupt earlier cultural norms.
