Relations
an anthology of African and diaspora voices
Book - 2023
Many people in the world today see those who do not look like them, or who speak differently as being separate; as "other." Relations challenges the human illusion of separation, illuminating the connections that link us all as humans, different though equal in every way. In this powerful anthology, new and established storytellers reshape the narratives that restrict and subjugate, revealing the truth of our shared humanity despite differences such as language, identity, class, and gender. Edited by Nana Ekua Brew-Hammond, Relations is a meeting place of perspectives, a profound meditation on the diversity of the Black experience in a post-Black Panther world. The essays, poetry, and stories included span format and genre; they address questions of culture and experience among communities across the globe, who we are, who we want to be, and what it means to navigate life in a Black body. Relations is a vibrant, essential examination of being that elevates voices from different corners of the world. African and diaspora writers share in an urgent gathering of story, a place for contemplation and celebration of the deepest relations.
