It is not possible to read this collection of poems without being simultaneously touched by the authenticity of the experiences they recount... many of the poems in the collection deliver a stinging critique of America..." ~Dr. Timothy Chin, Ph. D., University of Michigan "Open-minded readers will see that the author's poems uncover inequities while also communicating encouragement of tolerance between the haves and the have-nots... we might have different challenges, backgrounds and life experiences but we can all relate to the rhythmic, heartfelt poems..." ~Dr. Iris Baxter, Ph. D., University of Southern California
