How do we turn our fetters into wings? \u003cbr\u003eFetters Into Wings is a collection of poems on life, relationships, and social issues. There are poems that protest police violence against Black men, that celebrate the rewards of long marriage, that highlight the importance of friendship, excellence, and imagination. Whatever the subject, Fetters Into Wings ultimately celebrates our existence-what it is, what it can be, who we are, who we can become-as well as the source of our lives; God. Illustrated throughout, each poem is followed by the author's story of what inspired it. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"I can't breathe\" were our Black brothers' cries, \u003cbr\u003eTheir last words before they closed their eyes.\u003cbr\u003eEveryone stood and watched in horror, \u003cbr\u003eWondering, \"Who will it be tomorrow?\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 126\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.5 x 8 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 29, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51773768565024,"sku":"9781038304582","price":36.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/5927a8e3108a40e3af06bafd75c45232_415e5453-612e-4307-abaa-7f347e2b6589.webp?v=1780432380","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/fetters-into-wings-hardcover","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
