Book excerpt: "Here's Our Child, Where's The Village?" conveys that every child deserves the opportunity to flourish as happy, thriving and free spirited people regardless of race and the displacement factors governing their lives. The question isn't "Here's Our Child, Where's The Village?" The question is whose village will you be? "We must bear each others burdens. Though the village has been replaced by concrete and Roe v. Wade, there remains innocent children deserving of love and a safe haven. They may be parentless, but they are not Godless..." -Bruce George, Co-Founder of Def Poetry Jam "Connecting kids to permanency is paramount." Stacia C. Hammond- Executive Director/Founder Adoption Support & Consultation Services of Florida, Inc. (ASCS) "It gives me great pleasure to pen the foreword for "Here's Our Child; Where's the Village?" and participate in the efforts of the Gumbo for the Soul project. The joy one gets from a child is indescribable, but something everyone can enjoy in one capacity or another; especially if we believe in the old African Proverb, it takes a village to raise a child". -Tee C Royal, founder of RAWSISTAZ Literary Group Gumbo for The Soul Publications and logo are registered trademarks of Beverly Black Johnson.

Book Synopsis Power and Possibility by : Elizabeth Alexander
Download or read book Power and Possibility written by Elizabeth Alexander and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A volume in the Poets on Poetry series, which collects critical works by contemporary poets, gathering together the articles, interviews, and book reviews by which they have articulated the poetics of a new generation. Elizabeth Alexander is considered one of the country's most gifted contemporary poets, and the publication of her essays in The Black Interior in 2004 established her as an astute critic and cultural commentator as well. Arnold Rampersad has called Alexander "one of the brightest stars in our literary sky . . . a superb, invaluable commentator on the American scene." In this new collection of her essays, reviews, and interviews, Alexander again focuses on African American artistic production, particularly poetry, and the cultural contexts in which it is created and experienced. The book's first section, "Black Arts 101," takes up the poetry of Paul Laurence Dunbar, Sterling Brown, Lucille Clifton, Gwendolyn Brooks, and Rita Dove (among others); artist Romare Bearden; dancer Bill T. Jones; and dramatist August Wilson. A second section, "Black Feminist Thinking," provides engaging meditations ranging from "My Grandmother's Hair" and "A Very Short History of Black Women and Food" to essays on the legacies of Toni Cade, Audre Lorde, and June Jordan. The collection's final section, "Talking," includes interviews, a commencement address---"Black Graduation"---and the essay "Africa and the World." Elizabeth Alexander received a B.A. from Yale University, an M.A. from Boston University, and a Ph.D. in English from the University of Pennsylvania. She has published four books of poems: The Venus Hottentot (1990); Body of Life (1996); Antebellum Dream Book (2001); and, most recently, American Sublime (2005), which was one of three finalists for the Pulitzer Prize. Her play, Diva Studies, was produced at the Yale School of Drama. She is presently Professor of American and African American Studies at Yale University.

Book Synopsis Fresh Oil and Loose Gravel: Road Poetry by Brian D'Ambrosio 1998-2008 by : Brian D'Ambrosio
Download or read book Fresh Oil and Loose Gravel: Road Poetry by Brian D'Ambrosio 1998-2008 written by Brian D'Ambrosio and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2008-09-04 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry pieced together to theorize the roiled character of life on the road, Fresh Oil and Loose Gravel: Road Poetry 1998-2008, is a testament to the personal upholding of distraught freedom and self-sacrifice, love and falsehood, misplacement and rebirth. This rugged presentation of road poetry expresses the loss and reemergence of honesty, generalities of defiance, innate fragility, heroic weakness, unmitigated arrogance, brazen, uncouth behavior, utmost kindness, inscrutable duality of the attraction of opposites, and the mushy struggle for self-betterment. With wit, humor, truculence, and adrenaline, Fresh Oil and Loose Gravel takes readers on arid avenues to self-renewal, to remote paths of sentimental victory, open skies to freedom, and to a world full of mystery, sojourns of suspense, and the mercurial fluidity of fresh oil and loose gravel.
Download or read book Gumbo Ya Ya written by Aurielle Marie and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2021-09-21 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gumbo Ya Ya, Aurielle Marie’s stunning debut, is a cauldron of hearty poems exploring race, gender, desire, and violence in the lives of Black gxrls, soaring against the backdrop of a contemporary South. These poems are loud, risky, and unapologetically rooted in the glory of Black gxrlhood. The collection opens with a heartrending indictment of injustice. What follows is a striking reimagination of the world, one where no Black gxrl dies “by the barrel of the law” or “for loving another Black gxrl.” Part familial archival, part map of Black resistance, Gumbo Ya Ya catalogs the wide gamut of Black life at its intersections, with punching cultural commentary and a poetic voice that holds tenderness and sharpness in tandem. It asks us to chew upon both the rich meat and the tough gristle, and in doing so we walk away more whole than we began and thoroughly satisfied. Excerpt from “transhistorical for the x in my gxrls” What I mean is, this country is mine if only because from my mouth I spit its loam and unspun a noose. I won’t exploit the only metaphor they gave us willingly, and instead hunt for other vicious things to make a muse. I earned this country. I owe it nothing. With my infinite, infant hand, I manipulated a death sentence into a compound-complex one. from the umbilical, I bled a life worth writing down and in a century’s time, there will be another word created still for the weeping magic of this same story: a Black gxrl’s first breath.
Download or read book Gumbo written by Jerome Strong and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gumbo: The Poetry and Artworks is a collection of new poetry and original artwork by the poet. The poems relate to the simplicities of life. The poet believes that some of the simple things that are the substance of life hold many of the most profound meanings we can ever get out of life. Moreover, these simplest of things seem to evade far too many of us as we are distracted by consumerism and the decadence which comes with conspicuous consumption. Gumbo is the third title publication which contains poems written by this poet. He is at once excited about a future publication of poetry written while an undergraduate in the early nineties.
