About the Book:

The poems in this book present a mosaic of modern life that reaches
back to the past to capture the pulse of the future. Tapping into topics
such as social justice, economic disparity, spiritual philosophy, and
most of all love, this book provides a compelling tribute to non
conformity and a celebration of those who defy social norms.
Often set against the backdrop of East Harlem, 'El Barrio', New York,
the poetry strides through complex intricacies of life and society with
vivid imagery and introspective musings.
The pieces come alive with the rhythms of jazz and blues music, and
immerse the reader in an artistic journey of creativity. To read these
poems is to experience the culture. Engaging for ages young and old
alike, Black Existentialism is a collection of writings that bridges
landmark poetic influences such as Amiri Baraka, Sonia Sanchez,
Gil Scott Heron, Allen Ginsberg, and many more, with the cultural
vibrancy of the 21st century.
