Publisher's Synopsis
"Miscegenation Round Dance is a fierce collection that pierces your heart with ancestral
knowledge. It asks questions such as 'how many ways removed from violence am I
through the language of poetry?' These poems take us through the lived experiences of
holding different nations: Black, Indigenous, and settler backgrounds, within one's
body, one's vessel. Rain dances us through 'the topography of pain' and history as the
poems help us re-learn and re-write colonial narratives, begging the colonizer to:
'unoccupy me.' This is a powerful and unapologetic collection sure to move you at your
core.
-Tanaya Winder, author of Words Like Love: Poems and Why Storms are Named After
People and Bullets Remain Nameless
