She inspired my own poetry (which I haven't written in the years since I started graduate school six years ago). I bought all of her books of poetry, her essays and her autobiography.<br /><br />I received Racism 101 as a departure gift from a sorority sister who knew I loved Giovanni. I was leaving to go to New York to graduate school where I was also the "lonely only." Wonderful coincidence! Thanks for sharing!<br /><br />TaraTara Whitenoreply@blogger.com
