Why Does a Black Poet? by Stanley N. Bernard

Nineteen years in the making, the poems in this book touch upon race, neighborhoods, love, and African heritage through the lens of a black man struggling with his angst and emotion. Anyone wanting to curl up with a compelling book of poems will enjoy this collection and will come away with a greater understanding of one man’s take on African-American and African-Caribbean culture and thought.
