Afrekete: An Anthology of Black Lesbian Writing by Catherine E. McKinley

4.0

4 1/2 Stars. As an aspiring writer who is also a Black same gender loving woman, I found this collection intimately inspiring and restorative. The works in this collection are diverse, sensual, authentic, poetic, and provocative. They are both comforting and challenging. Soothing yet jarring. I highly recommend this book not only to other Black SGL women but also to anyone who is interested in diverse perspectives on love, identity, justice, and the struggle of living fully.
