<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>In this striking debut, Parris turns the spotlight on the Black women who organize communities, support their incarcerated loved ones, and battle institutions, living each day by a ride-or-die philosophy, strengthening their voices and demanding to be heard.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>In the 1970s, Beverly walks into an office of Black activists, wanting to join the Movement, and has to prove she's angry enough to fight. Some forty years later, in the Hip Hop Generation, Nicole reunites with her ex-boyfriend on a basketball court, wondering where he's been, when a police officer stops them.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Parris's play does the worthy work of combating the idea that Black women are superhuman, able to bear the weight of their communities, fight societal racism on micro and macro levels, and care for their families while managing a tight budget." --Carly Maga, <i>Toronto Star</i><br>
