A Song Below Water: A Novel | Bethany C. Morrow
post image

I don‘t know how I happen to be reading this advanced copy of a book that releases today at this very appropriate moment in time, but I am. I don‘t have adequate words to say all I want to say, but this is exactly it. Exactly.

Book: “A Song Below Water” by Bethany C. Morrow

“People like us in situations like this become hashtags, but they rarely get justice. I think we all wait for that one time though, that one time when it ends right.”

I do not condone riots and burning buildings, but I do understand the anger. I pray for swift justice for George Floyd... What happened to him was an atrocity and the officers should be charged and dealt with immediately!

Read. Re-read. Read it again. This violence needs to stop. To my Black friends, family, colleagues, neighbors: I see you. I'm so sorry. This is awful. To my white friends, family, neighbors, and colleagues: stand up, speak out, do the work, hold each other accountable for actions great and small that contribute to dehumanization and destruction of Black lives. #BlackLivesMatter #AboutHumanRights #justiceforgeorgefloyd #icantbreathe

SamAnne Stamped from the Beginning is on my summer reading list. And what a heartbreaking, angering week in the U.S. 4y
SamAnne And now that I write that, really, it‘s just another week in the U.S. with exactly the same events happening and just not captured on video. 4y
Andrea313 @SamAnne Absolutely. This is nothing new for communities of color, who have experienced this trauma for generations. 4y
