Posted on October 7, 2021October 31, 2021 by Querida

And just like Beloved re-entered Sethe’s life when Paul D. brought Sethe’s past with him to Sethe’s doorstep, every time Black Americans see an act of race-based violence in the news, our own ancestral ghosts appear.

Piece 21: Tell the Truth and Shame the Devil

Posted on October 29, 2020November 1, 2021 by Querida
