Publisher's Synopsis
The Talk: Vital Expressions and Conversations by Families of Color is about the unfortunate but necessary discussions held in BIPOC households to prepare for malevolent encounters with law enforcement and sometimes society at large. This is an anthology of original and never-before-seen works of poetry and essays told by people of color, related to their own experiences. This project has come to fruition after many discussions about the social injustice in this world. The time has come for eyes to open to what people of color live with on a daily basis and all of their lives. This truly is a cradle to grave lifestyle as a means of survival.
