It also happens to be the question millions of people whose history has been steeped in anguish and adversity. Peace and blessings 💫 She shares it with her people. Drixceya's songs were largely wordless, and so they started to tell a story through their song titles — a provocative and engaging concept.

⠀⠀What do we do with the trauma that we've inherited? Tell me that's not one of the most powerful premises to a story ever. They are passed down, and thus they survive, but their shape changes as they get interpreted differently by every individual. Rivers Solomon heard the song, and decided to bring it back down to a more personal level, writing a story about a people, and their relationship to history.

Yetu is the historian of her people. I read it till I fell asleep, I read it at work, I read it on my balcony at 2am.

⠀⠀Stories (and what is history if not a bunch of stories we tell about ourselves? By far, THEE best book on my bookshelf. A responsibility that falls on Yetu, our delicate and long-suffering main character. It'll stay with you.
