NOTES

Timely, poignant, and brutally honest, the "boy" book is a literary platform comprised of the voices of black mothers. Gwen Carr, the mother of Eric Garner and the "I Can't Breathe Movement" penned a prolific articulation of black mothers' plight in America. The reality of raising, protecting and defending black sons is horrifically overwhelming; but the mothers included in this compelling literary work have, rawly and unapologetically released their experiences and emotions. The "boy" book provokes soul searching, accountability, and sustainable action
