It's my mirror work to go back and fetch- infant me. It's my 'personal responsibility' towards Sankofa. I hope these poems elucidate or better yet sing both the gospel and the blues of my entrance and when I'm gone, my legacy. Knowing the power of our wombs, the homes I've had, has finally made me proud of my origin story. These stories are turning the loss and grief, the abandonment and isolation, the distrust, the shame, from dirty pain to clean pain. I've come to accept these experiences as the other face, the agreement of love and for love. This book is for youth of rage, the parent, the social worker and even the lawmaker. It's for the long awaited conversation at the dining table, it's for families reuniting"-- $c Provided by publisher. 648 7 $a 2000-2099 $2 fast 650 0 $a African American women $v Poetry. 650 0 $a Poetry $x Women authors. 650 0 $a American poetry $y 21st century. 650 0 $a American poetry $x African American authors. 650 0 $a Death $v Poetry. 650 0 $a Grief $v Poetry. 650 7 $a American poetry. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00807348 650 7 $a American poetry $x African American authors. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00807349 650 7 $a Death. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00888613 650 7 $a Grief. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00947883 650 7 $a Poetry $x Women authors. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01067752 655 7 $a poetry. $2 aat $0 (CStmoGRI)aatgf300055931 655 7 $a Poetry. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423828 655 7 $a Poetry. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a PoeÌsie. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000000476 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240320011241.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3A6048A8E67F11EE94C7D61345ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
