• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Heirs of November is about breaking the silence, standing up, and speaking out in a time when The People's voices are deliberately not heard. This collection of confessional, lyric and free verse poems, prose and protests reveal one poet's personal thoughts, experiences, encounters, and hopes while living in Saint Louis, Missouri and Los Angeles, California. Depicted are reflections of everyday life, stories of the times, informative and cautionary tales, and reminders to encourage the current and next generations to ask questions, stand up against corruption, challenge the status quo, and move towards worldwide equality, unity, sustainability, and peace. This book is about all of us and a call to action and change.
