Honor, Pride, Courage Mary A Carter

"The power of truth is astonishing! By acknowledging the hatred of our past and the ignited awareness of our social movement today, we open the doors to the probabilities of tomorrow". These are the emphatic words of the author, Mary A. Carter. In Honor, Pride, Courage, you will discover the articulations you need, in beautiful poetry, to understand the struggles inherited from our ancestry ("Reflections of a Time") to the fight for systematic and racial equality today ("Scars That Won't Heal"). Black people's exposure of America is different from any other race today, and in the past. This lyrical and insightful view of the history and culture of our journey through poetry, is a clear reflection of our prideful legacy and a guidepost to a more promising tomorrow.
