2020 Lambda Literary Award winner for best LGBTQ anthology
Despite the current survivor-affirming awareness around sexual violence, child sexual abuse, most notably when it's a family member or friend, is still a very taboo topic. There are approximately 42 million child sexual abuse survivors in the U.S. and millions of bystanders who look the other way as the abuse occurs and cover for the harm-doers with no accountability. Documentary filmmaker and survivor of child sexual abuse and adult rape, Aishah Shahidah Simmons invites diasporic Black people to join her in transformative storytelling that envisions a world that ends child sexual abuse without relying on the criminal justice system. Love WITH Accountability features compelling writings by child sexual abuse survivors, advocates, and Simmons's mother, who underscores the detrimental impact of parents/caregivers not believing their children when they disclose their sexual abuse. This collection explores disrupting the inhumane epidemic of child sexual abuse, humanely.

Описание:
Flaws of perfection came about from one's personal views on his or her life. When you give thought to the title, what can you deem perfect? The first thought that comes to my mind is Allah(God). We all deal with our own personal flaws no matter your religion. This is an autobiography in a poetic form. I'm giving you different views and insight inside my train of thoughts. Also, I'm showing you the progression as years went by, who's better to scribe your story that you? The world will always have their views and opinions of you. Does it make it true? If you are able to still smile when confronted with pain and laugh when presented with joy, that's a life even the wealthiest person couldn't afford. Adversity either exposes or reveals one's true self. So, laugh with me, cry with me, I'm showing you what's inside of me. I'm not the only one that been through some pain. But what I want you to gain by the end of this book, at least smile for me

Описание: A contextual historical examination of the civil rights movement and the artists who inspired it, this recollection depicts this storied era and how these artists signified the affecting change they helped create. The exploration details the development of the Black Arts Movement--from precursor activities such as the Umbra Workshop to transitional activities such as Ntozake Shange's choreopoem ""for colored girls who considered suicide when the rainbow is enuf""--and gives in-depth information about the role of prominent poets, such as Amiri Baraka, and the influence of black music.
