Description
augury
edited by ayodele nzinga
In a moment where people consciously seek to erase history and even perceptions of progress— in a time where solace can perhaps be found dwelling in the future— or in the nowhere of constant scrolling can we take a moment here in the present to stand instructed by history, pregnant with our desires for the future and boldly call up what comes next.
“Augury is a living, breathing chorus—an Oakland-rooted offering of truth, beauty, and resistance. These pages hold multitudes: fierce tenderness, ancestral memory, righteous rage, and visions for a freer world. Edited by ayodele nzinga, this radiant gathering of voices refuses erasure, sings against silence, and insists on our collective survival. Every poem here is a map, a heartbeat, a prayer you can feel in your bones. This is more than a book—it’s a communal act of love.”
