"When a woman tells the truth, she is creating the possibility for more truth around her."
I really wanted to connect with this, especially as I read poetry and am becoming more familiar with poets. Maybe anthologies aren't my thing? I love the work of Mahogany Browne and Elizabeth Acevedo, but they were just two poets in this collection. I absolutely love the cover art though.
