Description:
Pat Parker stayed woke to black suffering, violence against black bodies—especially those of black women—to the suffering engendered by multiple, egregious oppressions. With The Complete Works of Pat Parker, we are allowed an opportunity to historicize Pat Parker’s significance to black women’s literary traditions, lesbian erotics, to black queer struggles and black feminisms, and to global social justice movements. She was in her time. Now, with this important text, she will be in all time to come. Alexis De Veaux, author of Yabo As the #BlackLivesMatter movement calls attention to the grave risks Black people have always faced and as poets and artists wrestle with the question of how to marry the political and the personal in their work, we have never needed Pat Parker’s work more.

Kazim Ali, author of All One’s Blues: New and Selected Poems The poetry of Pat Parker reaches out to us anew and shakes our consciousness—fiercely. Cheryl Clarke, author of By My Precise Haircut
