A dream come true. I met my cousin @SafiyaSinclair at @calabashfest
If you know me. You know I LOVED #HowToSayBabylon
It touched me. While reading it several times I said “Why is this me?!” I cried with her. I cheered her on. And since Ive wanted to meet her. 🥹

'Luckily, I found poetry, which led me to nurturing my own voice and figuring out for myself what kind of woman and poet I wanted to become.'

It's been a while since a book has moved me to tears. The last book was "When Breath Becomes Air".
But that chapter where he beat her for the shoes was my undoing.

I feel the outdoors is lightly touched on in #HowtoSayBabylon. There is mention of the sea and descriptions of how lush it is... I'd love to read more from an author who consciously weaves in the richness of the land throughout the book

Just finished reading/listening to #HowToSayBabylon by @SafiyaSinclair, a searing memoir on survival, and the indelible impacts of #coercivecontrol and #domesticabuse on a family. I won't spoil the ending, but this is why we do the work we do.
Cheers to @SafiyaSinclair! 💃🏾

Hearing @SafiyaSinclair ‘a voice crack while listening to this audiobook 🥹😭
I can relate to so much of what she went through. Those feelings of being unseen and worthless.
I’m looking forward to the parts of her story of how she overcame her childhood.
