This is not just a book of poems-it is a resurrection of voices long silenced, a restoration of pride long stripped, and a reawakening of a people's divine identity.
American History is African American History is a powerful tapestry of poetic truth, braided with the strength of our ancestors and stitched together with the soul of a New Black Nation. Within these pages live the echoes of Africa, the cries from slave ships, the resistance in the cotton fields, the fire of civil rights, and the unwavering spirit that refuses to die.
Ashirah Yiskah Ariyah Bat-Yisrael Olukoya pens a sacred offering-an unapologetic chronicle of survival, brilliance, and rebirth. This collection does not beg for acknowledgment. It stands as a bold testament: Black History is not a Chapter in America's Story-it is the Story.
Each poem calls upon the reader to remember, rise, and reclaim. This book is for you for the broken and the brave, the chained and the chosen, the dreamers and the builders of a new legacy.
We are the past. We are the present. We are the future.
This is our book. This is our Black Legacy.
