This collection contains stories and poems written by twenty Black women and girls, it is serendipitous that their voices blend seamlessly, and beautifully, even though the writers are intergenerational. The storytelling crosses local, national, and international cultural sensibilities, giving the reader a glimpse of the way the storytellers receive and share 'Story.' The poets cut through emotional lines to caress the reader, just before they unleash a shaft of insight that rattles their consciousness. Contributors to The Black Notes include Motion, Whitney French, Itah Sadu, d'bi.young anitafrika, Brenda Lee Browne, Gayle Gonsalves, and Jemeni.
