Acolytes

Know about the book -

Acolytes is written by Nikki Giovanni and published by Harper Collins. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0061734136 (ISBN 10) and 9780061734137 (ISBN 13).

A collection of eighty all new poems, Acolytes is distinctly Nikki Giovanni, but different. Not softened, but more inspired by love, celebration, memories and even nostalgia. She aims her intimate and sparing words at family and friends, the deaths of heroes and friends, favorite meals and candy, nature, libraries, and theatre. But in between, the deep and edgy conscience that has defined her for decades shines through when she writes about Rosa Parks, hurricane Katrina, and Emmett Till's disappearance, leaving no doubt that Nikki has not traded one approach for another, but simply made room for both.
