Being a Strong Black Woman Can Get U Killed (Paperback)


The poems of Laini Mataka embody her sharp wit and genuine love for Black people. The title poem is a lament for the strong Black woman who "carried the family in her belly, the community on her head, and the race on her back". In other poems, Mataka explores relationships in the Black community -- between parents and children, between men and women, between herself and the universe.
