The poems in LIBERTY are a capsule of the summer of 2020, a summer of fear– of what was within and of what was outside.

****************

How long can a human sustain on fear? The poems in Liberty scrape back layers of historical and contemporary suffering to expose the root of this question and others. Arceneaux skillfully traces connections between race, identity and survival while searching for a way out-a life after grief.

-Amanda Johnston, Poet, Author of Another Way to Say Enter

The poems in Liberty are relentless. Relentless in confronting injustice. Relentless in naming names. Relentless is mining the self for signs of pain and endurance. Relentless in seeking clarity through image and word. Amiri Baraka relentless. Cherrie Moraga relentless. They demand response, and action. Read the book, then go out and work for change.

-Steve Wilson, author of The Reaches
