What My Hand Say

What My Hand Say, on one hand is a bold unapologetic tribute of black people living their livesin South Carolina. While on other hand, it is a palpable reckoning with the state’s weightedhistory. In this book, Glenis Redmond’s poems span from the 1800s to the present. The impactof going from poem to poem purposely causes emotional whiplash, as if to say welcome to thevolatile place, in which “I/we have always had to live.”
