I Am Not Background Noise Poems of Power, Presence and Personal History (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789376426607)

I Am Not Background Noise is a poetry collection about visibility, identity, emotional labor, and the power of being fully present in a world that often engages selectively. Across three distinct signals: Power, Presence, and Personal History, Sylvia Wicks explores Black identity, cultural memory, boundaries, intimacy, and self-definition through poetry that is grounded, reflective, and unafraid to take up space.
