Requests:  0 Summary:  In the midst of civil unrest in the summer of 2020 following the murders of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery, one of the great literary voices of our time, Elizabeth Alexander, wrote a moving reflection on the psyche of young Black America, turning a mother's eye to her sons' generation. Originally published in the New Yorker, the essay brilliantly and lovingly observed the lives and attitudes of young people who even as children could never be shielded from the brutality that has ended so many Black boys and men's lives. Now, that essay is expounded upon, bookended by additional essays woven with profound insight and heart and combined with groundbreaking art by prominent and up-and-coming Black artists. Taking the reader through our past and extrapolating its lasting impact through to our current moment, Elizabeth then turns her eye to the radical potential of our future. --   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 305.89607 Al Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.89607 Alexander Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.89607 Al Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.89607 Al Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.89607 Al Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pearl City Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.89607 Al Checked In Add Copy to MyList
