Summary:
Basodee is a passionate and eye-opening collection of
youth
poems, essays, and stories exploring what it means to be young,
Black
and Canadian. This anthology seeks to portray contemporary Canadian-Black relations and is one of the few published collections of
Black
youth
stories in
Canada
. Topics covered in poems, essays and stories include the Canadian system of (mis)educating Blacks, integrated vs. non-integrated schools,
Black
identity
, and fitting in with a different culture. There are remembrances of 'back home'--about places like Haiti, Somalia, Kenya, Burundi, and Trinidad; experiences of culture shock and solutions for remembering where one came from; stories of family and finding one's own voice; facts and fictions about
Black
Canadian history.
