Black joy : a strategy for resistance, resilience, and restoration / Tracey Michae'l Lewis-Giggetts. by Lewis-Giggetts, Tracey M. Gallery Books, 2022. Call #: 814.6 L677b Subjects Blacks -- United States -- Psychology.   Blacks -- United States -- Social conditions.   Conduct of life -- Anecdotes.   American essays -- 21st century.   American essays -- Black authors. ISBN:  9781982176556 (hc.) Edition:  1st Gallery Books hardcover ed. Description:  261 p. ; 22 cm. Summary:  "When Tracey M. Lewis-Giggetts wrote an essay on Black joy for The Washington Post, she had no idea just how deeply it would resonate. But the outpouring of positive responses affirmed her own lived experience: that Black joy is not just a weapon of resistance, it is a tool for resilience. With this book, Tracey aims to gift her community with a collection of lyrical essays about the way joy has evolved, even in the midst of trauma, in her own life. Detailing these instances of joy in the context of Black culture allows us to recognize the power of Black joy as a resource to draw upon, and to challenge the one-note narratives of Black life as solely comprised of trauma and hardship."--From publisher.
