Often we don't speak to the little girl in US who has a story to tell. That story is often silenced by family patterns, traumas, the inadequacies of past failures, or even the successes of the past. We don't ever focus in on that little brown girl who is crying out for validation.
Collections Of A Brown Girl: A Poetic Declaration is a compilation of musings, poetry, prose, and narratives that take you through a journey of transcending pain into discovering what love is as womanhood blossoms. A brown girl must understand her story to discover her voice.
Our stories are written through the power and the ancestral dedication to liberty, whatever that looks like. This book is a culmination of those thoughts, meditations, tears, laughs, celebrations, disappointments, fears, and inadequacies that make up our collective lived experience as Black women.
Let's have a conversation, little Brown Girl; it's time to speak up.
