How to Love a Country: Poems by Richard Blanco

4.0

I “read” this book on Audible which is admittedly not the best format for poetry. Nonetheless his words were a balm and an invite to reflect on the current environment within America, my place in this, and my responsibility. This book isn’t going to teach you about what’s going on today nor is it a history lesson, rather, be prepared for the words to till the soil in your heart as you consider privilege, racism, and violence in our country.
