Description
Headlines is a poetry collection based on current media headlines surrounding black people and our existing notions of "blackness". The headlines present an accurate contemporary view into the current zeitgeist of "blackness". Media headlines are revealing historical and sociological artifacts that provide insights into any society. I utilize media headlines to analyze our current notions regarding "blackness" and all it entails.

Contemporary preconceptions of blackness seem to have difficulty dislodging themselves from past notions and narratives.
