A Park Stands on All of Our Graves by Khadijah Z. Ali-Coleman

[Black Writers for Peace]

This third poetry collection from poet Khadijah Z. Ali-Coleman reflects on global oppression, occupation and the legacy of erasure. It is the first book published through Black Writers for Peace and Social Justice, Inc.

 

Khadijah Z. Ali-Coleman's poems explore themes of identity, resistance, social justice, history, culture, and the American machine's cringeworthy hypocrisy. She tenderly examines the political trends/winds with a raw, soulful verse, which begs to be heard. This collection is a unique form of militant jazz. A must read.

-Synnika A. Lofton, author of Monsters in My Head

 

Both a meal and a treasure trove of lessons, A Park Stands On All of Our Graves is something to chew on, savor, and swallow...Dr. Ali-Coleman's latest offering, is a dish best served simmering and without an iota of an apology.

-B. Sharise Moore, author and poetry editor of FIYAH Magazine of Black Speculative Fiction
