Nikki Giovanni has long been an inspiration to me–she grew up in my hometown and was one of the first poets on my radar. Her poem “Housekeeping” is one of my all-time favorites, and I am going right now to purchase her new book, which sounds so wonderful. Thanks for bringing her voice to me so directly!
