Publisher's Synopsis
Raising children is difficult, but raising children of color has been difficult in the wake of police brutality, the blatent disregard for people of color from the current administration, and the culture of passing off lies as truth. From Hurricane Katrina to the ugliness of the Iraq war to Trayvon Martin and Philando Castile's murders, parenting has required a new set of skill sets and conversations. Kelisa Wing takes readers on a journey of her and her childrens' lives, through anecdotes of American history from 2005 to the present. 'If I Could' is a journey about parenting while black and the lessons that we need to pass on to our children for their survival in a cruel and unjust world.
