HEY BLACK CHILD--do you know who you are? Who you really are? So
begins the widely-recited poem by Useni Eugene Perkins, to be
illustrated by award-winning illustrator Bryan Collier. An ode to
black children, this empowering picture book is a celebration of
African-American lives that promotes the self-esteem, making this
both a timely and important book, especially in light of recent
events across America. Useni Eugene Perkins's "Hey Black Child" was
recently performed on Steve Harvey's show Little Big Shots by
four-year-old Pe'Tehn (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOTZWdIyRJE)
and, last fall, was recited by Pe'Tehn when she was three
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5n_DeHMVAkM), blowing away viewers
and raising awareness for the confidence-building text.
