RECOMMENDED READING | WE WANT OUR BODIES BACK BY JESSICA CARE MOORE

 "When you decide to give your body to someone, what exactly do you receive in exchange? If we, in fact, do “choose” to “give up our bodies,” when do we get to have our bodies back?" 

-jessica Care moore, We Want Our Bodies Back


poetry for black women


This timely book of poetry was nothing short of amazing, y'all. Lending beautiful language to the black woman's power and pain, Moore reminds me to keep writing, no matter what. We have stories to tell, wounds to heal, and love to spread throughout our communities. I will no longer be silent and allow someone to tell my "story" for me.
