"Deeply cathartic and resonant for parents attempting to raise their children with intention and integrity. Imani Perry shows deep compassion for both parents and children...while incisively underlining the realities of raising Black boys in a country that will inherently betray them. It is a book filled with love and insight for difficult times."--Tarana Burke
"Imani Perry wants her young sons 'to make beauty and love in a genocidal time.' Bless them! And bless her, for this book is a wonderful model for doing just that! So much joy and caring and pain and rage distilled into soaring, striking sentences."--Amitava Kumar, author of Immigrant, Montana
