The Unboxing of a Black Girl by Angela Shanté

emotional inspiring reflective fast-paced

5.0

A powerful collection of poetry that I wish I would have listened to instead of reading the physical book. I imagine the spoken word poems are even more powerful that way, and that's just the way I generally prefer to read poetry collections.

This was a finalist for the National Book Award, which it is much deserving of that label. In addition to the fantastic poetry, there are a lot of resources included if you want to continue your learning journey. A book I highly recommend!
