Ground Truth: Writing Towards Justice, edited by Claire Millikin, Mihku Paul, Karin Spitfire, and Maya Williams, with cover art by Natasha Mayers, collects works from some 40 Maine writers and activists addressing the injustices occurring today in Maine and across the nation, including my essay, an excerpt from the Bus Rider’s Guide to the Penobscot River. It is an honor to be part of this anthology.
Former Maine Poet Laureate Juilia Bowsma writes of Ground Truth, “This is a collection resplendent with hope—not the hope of grand gesture or sweeping promise, but a daily, gritty, messy, determined hope. This is the hope that shows up and keeps showing up, which is to say: this is the hope we need.”
Purchase at select bookstores or online from Karin Spitfire.
All sales proceeds will be donated to the Maine Immigrants Rights Coalition, Maine Solidarity Fund, and Niweskok: From the Stars to Seeds.
