"""The parables in Kindred Creation show us the light on the walk of life."" —Nikki Giovanni, author and seven time NAACP Image award winner ""Drawing from the best parts of our traditions, Kindred Creation is an offering of high art, radical political philosophy, and spiritual nourishment. Read this book and prepare to be unsettled, challenged, inspired, and healed."" —Marc Lamont Hill, author and BET News correspondent ""Writer, leader, visionary, and storyteller, Aida Mariam Davis, has turned centuries of accumulated knowledge and wisdom from the victims of settler colonialism into a lyrical, audacious appeal to decolonize everything in order to preserve and repair our planet. A vital contribution that needs to be translated into every language."" —Robin D.G. Kelley, author of Freedom Dreams: The Black Radical Imagination ""This book is a powerful testimony to the richness of African and Black knowledges. Both inspiring and poignant, Davis takes an incisive look at the past and invites us to reclaim our interconnectedness. A must read!""  —Anna Tubbs, author of New York Times bestseller Three Mothers"
