Taken together, these artful reflections offer an honest and hopeful journey through a woman's silent rage, through the power inherent in struggles with destruction, and the ensuing possibilities of transforming that burning force into the external release of art. With contributions by Nan Goldin, bell hooks, Patricia Smith, Cristy C.

Silent Judgment

TV news personality Amelia Chess has made her career by being an unapologetic Black conservative who is relentless in her attacks on the liberal left, pro-choice supporters, the LGBTQ community, and scathing in her criticism of her own race. But when two Black cops shoot an unarmed white teen, Amelia’s scorched earth editorial gets her canceled—and she starts receiving death threats. Silence has no intention of playing bodyguard to a sellout—until the order comes down from the mysterious kingpin he owes a favor. Soon, Silence is spending time with Amelia and her gifted teenage son, Antwon—and starting to understand what lies beneath Amelia’s villainous persona. And once the threats turn real, Silence discovers that Amelia is being targeted by the same militia he escaped as a teen—and their interest in her is just part of a larger, far more dangerous conspiracy. When an enemy female assassin goes too far, Silence finds himself at the center of a complicated love triangle, battling brutal opposing factions—and fighting the personal demons that could destroy him for good…
