Summary

"As a Black girl from the south side of Chicago with ancestral roots in Mississippi and Africa, Tasleem Jamila poetically conveys her quest for knowledge and a deepening relationship with God. This collection masterfully weaves together the intricate intersections of sacred spiritual Sufi poetry, Islamic mystical moments, and the rich dimensions of the Black Atlantic diaspora"-- Amazon.com.
