Sonia Sanchez
A Sun Lady for All Seasons Reads Her Poetry

“This record is gonna be talking about love; A black woman’s love for her children, man and nation. But you know before you can love someone you gots to love yourself. I mean you gots to dig on yourself, know that you be bad, badder than bad in fact…” In this collection of poems, Sonia Sanchez aims to uplift the Black community and specifically the Black woman for whom Sanchez continues to be an advocate.
