#punchingtheair #ibizoboi #yusefsalaam @harpercollinsuk @harpercollinsch .#yalit . . A searing ya novel about a black Muslim teen wrongfully sentenced to prison. written in verse this is a collaboration between Yusef, a member of the Exonerated Five and new York times bestseller Ibi. . . It follows a mile a teenager who has always been an artist and poet. One fateful night he is convicted of a crime he didn't commit and is sent to prison. To escape despair and rage he takes refuge in his words and his art. It is about power of art faith and transcendence in the most debilitating circumstances. . . . This looks inspiring and educational. I am looking forward to reading it. the blurb suggests it's for fans of the h u give by Angie Thomas and noughts and crosses by malorie Blackman. There's also sounds in the vein of The Black Kids by #christinahammondsreed . . .#bookblogger #bookstagram #bookstagramfeature #coverkidsbooks #instabook #ireadya #teenlit #kidslit #teenbooks #teenread #newbook #yalit #bookblogger #bookstagram #yabooks #bookstagramfeature #coverkidsbooks #instabook #ireadya #teenlit #kidslit #teenbooks #newbook #newfictions #newfiction #gifted https://www.instagram.com/p/CDWNm9kgc2E/?igshid=77ienpbnzgjy

. #PowerPost✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿™️ #PunchingTheAir #IbiZoboi #YusefSalaam #BecauseTheWorldMustKnow™️ #KeepShiningYourLught™️ #SharingTbeStruggle™️ “Reviving a friendship that goes back almost 20 years, Zoboi writes with Exonerated Five member Salaam, exploring racial tensions, criminal injustice, and radical hope for a new day. Ava DuVernay’s critically acclaimed When They See Us tells the story of Salaam’s wrongful conviction as a boy, a story that found its way back into the national conversation when, after nearly 7 years in prison, DNA evidence cleared his name. Although it highlights many of the same unjust systemic problems Salaam faced, this story is not a biographical rendering of his experiences. Rather, Zoboi offers readers her brilliance and precision within this novel in verse that centers on the fictional account of 16-year-old Amal Shahid. He’s an art student and poet whose life dramatically shifts after he is accused of assaulting a White boy one intense night, drawing out serious questions around the treatment of Black youth and the harsh limitations of America’s investment in punitive forms of justice. The writing allows many readers to see their internal voices affirmed as it uplifts street slang, Muslim faith, and hip-hop cadences, showcasing poetry’s power in language rarely seen in YA literature. The physical forms of the first-person poems add depth to the text, providing a necessary calling-in to issues central to the national discourse in reimagining our relationship to police and prisons. Readers will ask: Where do we go from here? Awardworthy. Soul-stirring. A must-read. (Verse novel. 12-18)” https://www.instagram.com/p/CC1PrjOhrUt/?igshid=1qhe7s8zdwuxk
