A piercing collection of essays on racial tension in America and the ongoing fight for visibility, change, and lasting hope, from the Viral Clark Atlanta University Commencement Speaker and Georgia Author of the Year
“There are stories that must be told.”
Acclaimed novelist and scholar Daniel Black has spent a career writing into the unspoken, fleshing out, through storytelling, pain that can’t be described.
Now, in his debut essay collection, Black gives voice to the experiences of those who often find themselves on the margins. Tackling topics ranging from:
- police brutality and its disproportionate targeting of black bodies
- the AIDS crisis and its intersectional effects on both queer and Black folks
- the role of HBCUs and their roots in American history and culture
- queer representation, specifically within the Black church
As Daniel Black reminds us, while hope may be slow in coming, it always arrives, and when it does, it delivers beyond the imagination. Propulsive, intimate, and achingly relevant, Black on Black is cultural criticism at its openhearted best.
