Reviews

Caroline Brewer has written a book that provides the tools that our children need in the language that they can encompass now. Ms. Brewer's work captures poetic language in all of its rich array of poetic possibilities...not only the rap, but the Pulitzer Prize-winning form. It celebrates haikus, limericks, sonnets, and spirituals, the acrobatics of language rhythm, and movement that we showcase in our communities every day. In addition to words that build worlds, Darius Daniels: Game On! reveals the beauty of the black family. It shows the manhood that our young men possess. The sweetness of our young women. It shows the sweetness and love of parents. Even when we make mistakes, our love can carry us through. The morality that runs our communities is precious and pure. There is no game that is stronger than our moral compass. Darius Daniels: Game On! demonstrates that, and that we do not give up our children. Darius Daniels: Game On! should be in every classroom for our black children and for our wider community. I look forward to that day. - Karen Wilson Ama'Echefu, PhD, Scholar, Speaker, Teaching Artist, Storyteller
