Paperback. Zustand: Fair. Honored as a "Best Book of 2021" by Publishers Weekly "This volume of verse displays the undeniable legacy June Jordan left on both our literature and culture. Collected here are blazing examples of poetry as activism, stanzas that speak truth to power and speak out against violence against women and police brutality. But Jordan also speaks on the significance of hope, mixing, as Brown puts it, 'the doom and devastation made mundane through media with the hard decision to love anyway.'"--O, The Oprah Magazine "A selection of poems published between 1971 and 2001, this posthumous volume reflects Jordan's view of poetry as 'a political action' that can 'build a revolution.' Her own work is filled with love and delight as well as revenge and justice."--New York Times Book Review, "Editor's Choice" The Essential June Jordan honors the enduring legacy of a poet fiercely dedicated to building a better world. In this definitive volume, introduced by Pulitzer Prize winner Jericho Brown, June Jordan's generous body of poetry is distilled and curated to represent the very best of her works. Written over the span of several decades--from Some Changes in 1971 to Last Poems in 2001­--Jordan's poems are at once of their era and tragically current, with subject matter including racist police brutality, violence against women, and the opportunity for global solidarity amongst people who are marginalized or outside of the norm. In these poems of great immediacy and radical kindness, humor and embodied candor, readers will (re)discover a voice that has inspired generations of contemporary poets to write their truths. June Jordan is a powerful voice of the time-honored movement for justice, a poet for the ages. Introduced by Jericho Brown, winner of the 2020 Pulitzer prize in poetry.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - June Jordan could renew any skeptic's faith in poetry. These poems gleam with jewel-like polish at the same time that they seem so effortlessly conversational one feels as if Jordan is in the room, expounding her endlessly complex and enlivening arc from outright outrage to generous love for herself, her partners, and all of us. - June Jordan's poetry speaks pointedly to the present moment and fervent calls for social justice.- Jordan spent half a century as one of the most admired, influential, and accessible public intellectuals in the United States. Her thinking still affects us to this day. - Jordan's work was unflinchingly intersectional even before the call for activism to be intersectional because ubiquitous. Her work boldly explores the entanglements of her Blackness, femininity, bisexuality, etc and still provides an admirable model for such exploration. - As well as being a poet, Jordan was an essayist, novelist, and even a librettist. - Started the renowned arts and activism program Poetry for the People at UC Berkeley. - Jordan's work, despite often speaking to particular instances of injustice or violence in the late twentieth century, echoes compellingly in the present day. As readers reach for Black voices to continue their learning about race and class in America, this volume will be waiting. - Even as Jordan is frank and unequivocal about injustice in her poetry, she maintains a sure optimism, bringing hope to discouraged readers. - Jordan also writes lush, honest love poems, attracting, potentially, a whole other audience to the volume.- Jordan collaborated with architect R. Buckminster Fuller to create a radical concept for redesigning Harlem towards racial and environmental justice. The project, which never came to be, was called Skyrise for Harlem.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Roman Koa knows that to survive, he must be ruthless.The Slums beneath the floating city of Icaria were never meant to thrive-but they did. A gritty junkyard city of thieves and robot fighters, it's everything Icaria isn't. Roman has grown greedy after clawing his way to the top of the robot fighting hierarchy with his powerful electromagnet robot, taking from anyone who crosses his path. When Icarians come to the Slums for a night of risky entertainment, Roman takes twice as much.But when he's offered the chance to steal advanced tech from Icaria, the job is too tempting to resist-even with Oliver Flint offering it, his former best friend who sold their robotics code for a new life in Icaria. Without Roman.The job is simple: Roman helps Oliver save Icaria's failing gravity beams, and Roman gains access to technology to build powerful robots to secure his position as King of Ring and King of the Slums. Roman's hatred for Icaria is hard to ignore, though and he is tempted to let the city Oliver betrayed him for crash back to Earth, but dooming Icaria means dooming everyone.As Icaria's gravity-and Roman's fragile bond with Oliver-fails, Roman must choose: will he let Icaria crash, or is there a chance for forgiveness, for both his friend and the city Failing Gravity is a high-octane, cyberpunk-inspired adventure about friendship, betrayal, and the fight for forgiveness.…
