A review by probablyjenna
How to Say Babylon by Safiya Sinclair

5.0

Safiya grew up in a strict Rastafarian family in Jamaica; she writes about it with love, grace, and deep pain. A poet by trade, and her writings absolutely sings. Safiya masterfully balances teaching readers about Rastafarian beliefs & sharing her internal struggles with its embedded misogyny. She also writes honestly about having a challenging, violent parent. 

It’s an absolutely beautiful book and one I’d consider a must read 🙌🏻
