Black Girl, Why Are You So? (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781967282074)

Black Girl, Why Are You So? was originally written as a poem by author, Breanya Hogue and featured as one of five selections in Black Lit 2022 at Indiana University. The literary event was established to commemorate the art of Black writers and orators. After performing the original poem, Breanya received a standing ovation and following the event several people recommended that she develop a book related to the poem. The poem was inspired by Breanya's upbringing, specifically her late mother who modeled the importance of self-confidence, pride, and self-expression. Breanya and her sister grew up exuding these qualities and she instilled them with all the youth that she came into contact with. May this book inspire all young readers to embrace their gifts and shine bright for the world to see! Breanya Hogue, Ph.D. is a published author and an assistant professor of Literacy & Language Education. This is her fourth children's book.
