The opening of the book might be hard for some people to stomach. But it’s the beginning that sets the tone right away. The book makes you aware of the hardships other people face everyday while you live in your bubble. It’s a book for women. Women who know struggle. It’s a book for anyone who’s found struggling with the constant micro aggressions that come with being colored. It’s a poem. It’s beautiful. This is a book about someone’s experience with the world and the people in it who oppress her and people who help her and inspire her.
