Her words are bold and bawdy and soft and sensuous and tell the history of &quot;...a trio of degrees&quot;, a passage of time and the limitation and wisdom of truth. Her words flow through the pages and capture snapshots of an entire culture and the wider world in which it exists. Amina's poetry depicts the urgency of a culture to make its own way and fit in at the same time - something that all Americans' desire. <br /><br />Humble and proud, Amina puts the world in which we, as American's exist in, in perspective. She captures moments that we all have experienced no matter what our heritage and moments that are uniquely African American. This is a book that should be read again and again. It is heartfelt and positive...without being trite or tired. It is poetry that is modern and filled with history. Amina's words are the wings of freedom upon which the America Dream was born. <br /><br />African Heritage, American Experience is reminiscent of the early works of the great Maya Angelou - and that is no small feet. This woman is a true talent.
