White Boy/Black Girl

What Our Differences Can Teach Us, One Honest Conversation at a Time

By: ADAEZE. BRINKMAN,Chad Brinkman

Let the Awkward Conversations Begin! Adaeze and Chad--two different people, two different backgrounds--both brought a lot of baggage into their relationship. Adaeze, a black Nigerian American woman who has lived with racism and discrimination her entire life. Chad, a white man with a family from the South who mostly grew up in white spaces. Determined to learn to communicate honestly and effectively, they stepped into tough conversations about their differences. Walls came down and Adaeze and Chad discovered the trust and respect they could have in and for each other. White Boy/Black Girl is an open-handed invitation from Adaeze and Chad to learn: Why trying to be the "perfect" Black or white person can't be the goal How to attempt to get it right when you're terrified of getting it wrong What to do when you're feeling uncomfortable, defensive, or misunderstood That repair is possible even when you've flat-out stepped in it The importance of surrendering our pain and prejudice to the redemptive work of Jesus Adaeze and Chad provide a safe space for us to eavesdrop on some of the most vulnerable conversations they've had about their differences. Their candid and honest back and forth gives us common, usable language to meet each other where we're at. The path to empathy and understanding isn't easy--but they promise you, it's always worth it.

Word of Mouth

Gossip and American Poetry

By: Chad Bennett

The first study of modern and contemporary poetry’s vibrant exchange with gossip. Can the art of gossip help us to better understand modern and contemporary poetry? Gossip’s ostensible frivolity may seem at odds with common conceptions of poetry as serious, solitary expression. But in Word of Mouth, Chad Bennett explores the dynamic relationship between gossip and American poetry, uncovering the unexpected ways that the history of the modern lyric intertwines with histories of sexuality in the twentieth century. Through nuanced readings of Gertrude Stein, Langston Hughes, Frank O’Hara, and James Merrill—poets who famously absorbed and adapted the loose talk that swirled about them and their work—Bennett demonstrates how gossip became a vehicle for alternative modes of poetic practice. By attending to gossip’s key role in modern and contemporary poetry, he recognizes the unpredictable ways that conventional understandings of the modern lyric poem have been shaped by, and afforded a uniquely suitable space for, the expression of queer sensibilities. Evincing an ear for good gossip, Bennett presents new and illuminating queer contexts for the influential poetry of these four culturally diverse poets. Word of Mouth establishes poetry as a neglected archive for our thinking about gossip and contributes a crucial queer perspective to current lyric studies and its renewed scholarly debate over the status and uses of the lyric genre.
