Synopsis
"In Fables, Foibles, & Other 'Merican Sins, Amoja Sumler displays, with educated, experiential enlightenment and powerfully poignant precision, his calling as Southern 'street' scholar. Colorfully referencing both his own personal experiences as well as those of folks he knows/ knew, along with an arsenal of language and historical and political knowledge, he draws the reader in to his bold and unmasking commentary on a Black American experience in a way that if you know, you know, and if you don't, you will definitely be more than curious to explore."--Sha'Condria Sibley, author of My Name Is Pronounced Holy and two-time National Poetry Slam champion
