Hip Hop. Urban realism. Ethno-cultural traditions passed down through generations. The poems in this collection powerfully convey a young African- American woman's journey as she comes to terms with her identity, culture, religion and heritage in today's society.

A powerful new collection by a young poet to be reckoned with. This groundbreaking collection of poetry comes from Robert Heinzche prize-winning poet and Minetta Review editor Vacirca Vaughn.

"These poems are perfectly balanced between the scholarly, the religious, the personal and the contemporary view a young woman has of herself and of the world she lives in."

-- A. J. Muhammed

"An excellent book of poems that speaks about many women through the voice of one woman."

-- Earl B. Tuck
