From the award-winning author of Pushout, an inspiring graphic
novel about what can happen when Black girls are given the
opportunity to find their genuine power Monique Couvson's
trailblazing book Pushout laid the groundwork for understanding how
our schools are failing Black girls; her follow-up, Sing a Rhythm,
Dance a Blues, provided a blueprint for their healing and
liberation. Now Couvson invites readers to be inspired by her
liberatory imagination with an original narrative told from the
perspective of the very girls she has been fighting for years to
lift up. Charisma's Turn is a graphic novel that follows the
dynamic story of Charisma, a sixteen-year-old Black high school
student who is grappling with mounting pressures from home and
school. When frustrations with her family intersect with a conflict
at school, she reaches a crossroads, facing a choice that could
change her future. Featuring vibrantly illustrated art from Amanda
Jones and a foreword by poet, artist, and arts educator Susan Arauz
Barnes, this book will appeal to teens, parents, educators,
librarians, and more. Charisma's Turn exemplifies how Black girls
can be truly empowered to reach their full potential when they have
supportive educators and community members in their corner.
