S.H.A.D.E.S.
S.H.A.D.E.S. is Jessica’s second novel and first work of poetry. She explores race and gender inequalities to shed light on the discrimination minorities have experienced in America.
This work of poetry isn’t meant to demean the majority – its aim is to spread awareness and exemplify the beauty within each minority’s melanin.
“For me, being silenced
Created more violence
It’s like caging a lioness
Before she catches her prey
Expecting her appetite
To be kept at bay“
-Excerpt from S.H.A.D.E.S.
“Don’t be looking all incredulous
Minorities can have a superfluous
Vocabulary when necessary
Yet, y’all will still label us as, scary”
-Excerpt from S.H.A.D.E.S.
“Everyone should be a pariah
Protesting Against Racism Injustice And Hate”
-Excerpt from S.H.A.D.E.S.
