Produktbeschreibung

The title 28 Days was made because there are 28 days in Black History Month. Last year when the majority of the book was written, there were actually 29 days due to the leap year. Since it was, I included one extra page with just Haikus. The topics in the book are inspired by real life experiences and untold truths. This book is not meant to divide, but unite ALL races by giving everyone a better understanding of each others perspectives. This is not solely a BLACK mans book its a HU-mans book told from the lips of a man that wants to change the world. The purpose of this book of poetry is to reach a newer level of understanding by being able to identify with experiences we talk about every day in our communities. The poems in this book were inspired by real people and therefore some are addressed to certain categories of people. Such as to that black male public school teacher who feels unappreciated, to the black religious leader who is being challenged by the waning faith in the community, to the many black veterans who served paid the ultimate price for patriotism and even to mixed couples who deal with racism from their own races on a daily bases. If I can inspire you by just ONE poem in this book of 28 (with a bonus haiku page) then you have my thanks. Why you ask? Because to me, changing the world comes from just inspiring one person because positive change can spread like wildfire. So thanks in advance my reader for helping me change the world!

Autorenporträt

Growing up in a household of three and being the youngest and only male, I was raised with a strong sense of family and respect for women. Unfortunately I have had to wear glasses since I was 2 years old. Although these caused me to be teased throughout school, it helped me see and discover my passion for reading, writing, and music. I picked up the Alto sax at the age of 12 thanks to a free music program offered at the time. This opened a doorway to music that was unavailable due to my moms income as a single parent. In spite of being unable to officially buy me any supplies I needed for music and writing activities, her support was crucial to my development into who I am today. I later even picked up the Tenor and Baritone Saxes along with the trumpet. I currently dont have any children but I have a strong sense of family and as I continue working to pay for school, Im still hoping to reach new levels of success with my first of many books that expand outside of just poetry. Im a fan of science fiction and fantasy and I am currently working on a series that will blow your mind! I decided to make this book my first official product due to a combination of my experiences growing up not completely knowing what it truly means to be black in not only the United States but the world. Once the events in the media with police brutality, deaths, riots, etc. became more prevalent, I realized that these experiences and circumstances werent only unique to me. So just like I was able to identify with the atrocities that I was being shown in the media from all over the world, I realized that the world can be influenced and changed for the better when someone tells them about life events that still arent being recorded. I talk about a lot of these in the book and I really hope to one day be able to change the world through my words and talents.
