Product Description

In his debut collection, Kelvin Parker documents the pendulum swing from loss to love, trauma to triumph, and oppression to opportunity, the repetitious movement that has come to define Black life in America. Offering reflections on history, scholarship, criminal justice, childhood psychology, and more, Parker gives a lesson on Black identity that all readers can access. His lesson is taught through insightful works of poetry that capture the resilience, survival, and humanity of Black experiences. More than just a book of poetry, Me in America is a call to action. It shines a scrutinizing light on the complex realities of this country, a nation founded on the pain, creativity, and excellence of Black people. It inspires readers to take a stand and advocate for lasting social change. No matter who you are or what you look like, Me in America will leave you with a thorough understanding of racial identity in America.

What a beautiful, yet heartbreaking read. Parker is a gifted storyteller, and his heart leaps off each page of this extraordinary debut collection. He doesn't shy away from the hard topics, which I deeply valued as a reader. There's also lovely imagery, literally and figuratively, in the strcture of his work as well. "All It Took Was Somebody's Word" is a great example of this and his description of pain and loss of self will stay with me for a long time. I definitely look forward to reading more from him!
