These poems were some of the most powerful and deep I have heard in a long time. If you have an hr out of your day to listen to anything it better be this.

Each piece was profound and lyrical with simple meaning yet deep impact. I will be recommending to everyone I know that wants to start reading more intentionally.

Fabulous poetry about female empowerment and Black Lives Matter. So important for our youth to experience this.

The messages in these poems were important...and I loved the rhythm and emotion within each of them. It was easy to listen to, even as the topics were hard to hear.

Say Her Name by Zetta Elliot is a collection of poems inspired by the #SayHerName movement launched by the African American Policy Forum. Topics ranging from self-love, black resistance, and police brutality, Say Her Name not only gives readers a glimpse into the mind of black women in America, but offers messages of hope and resilience. This is a quick read that I think many could pull insight from. I believe that collectively, the poems found in this book would make for great conversations among black women. I would definitely recommend to the young women in my life.

Thank you to Netgalley for the ARC of this title.
