Wordaholic –
This powerful collection of thought provoking prose and poetry is just what we need in this turbulent time. It is a hand reaching into the dark pit to pull us into the light. It is a cry of truth: Black Lives HAVE always mattered. If you didn’t know, now you know.
Jane Perill –
There is a lot of misunderstanding about the expression “Black Lives Matter.” This collection helps the reader understand the history out of which the movement came. The poems, personal narratives, and essays here demonstrate that the black experience is not monolithic. It is, however, made up of human beings faced with similar issues–threats to their very existence which have long, long roots. Publisher Gabrielle David and editor Abiodun Oyewole, themselves poets, have chosen strong pieces from well-published writers as well as newcomers. This collection belongs in the classroom and in the home library as a testament to the voices of our time.
