Black Girl, Call Home by Jasmine Mans

I've read a few great poetry collections this year, and BLACK GIRL, CALL HOME is among the best. These poems are nostalgic and beautifully written, capturing a Black American girlhood experience with vivid imagery and a soul-soothing style.

The book hits on many topics (and just hits, period!), including race, religion, sexuality, and family dynamics. Some of it is heavy, while other parts are heartwarming. These poems are Black girl magic on a page—approachable, relatable, and well done. 👏🏽
