Publisher Description: Origins: Lamentations of the Blackbird takes you on a journey that knocks you back into your body, holding on tight and unrelenting. As it sings, this collection of prose, poetry, and short stories gives voice to the things you always felt but couldn't put into words. To illustrate the nuanced realities of the black experience. To own history and selfhood in the face of white oppression. To realize the pain, anxiety, displacement, depression, grief, love, and healing. To let you know that you are not alone. |
