One of America's most celebrated poets challenges us with this powerful and deeply personal collection of verse that speaks to the injustices of society while illuminating the depths of her own heart.

For more than thirty years, Nikki Giovanni's poetry has inspired, enlightened, and dazzled readers. As sharp and outspoken as ever, this artist long hailed as a healer and a sage returns with this profound book of poetry in which she continues to call attention to injustice and give readers an unfiltered look into the most private parts of herself.

In Make Me Rain, she celebrates her loved ones and unapologetically declares her pride in her black heritage, while exploring the enduring impact of the twin sins of racism and white nationalism. Giovanni reaffirms her place as a uniquely vibrant and relevant American voice with poems such as "I Come from Athletes" and "Rainy Days"--calling out segregation and Donald Trump; as well as "Unloved (for Aunt Cleota)" and ""When I Could No Longer"--her personal elegy for the relatives who saved her from an abusive home life.

Stirring, provocative, and resonant, the poems in Make Me Rain pierce the heart and nourish the soul.

Perfect for my three year old!
Color: Bluey: Sky, Style: Kids Medium, Color: Bluey: Sky, Style: Kids Medium
It was officially time to transition from a diaper bag to a big girl backpack! And both my daughter and I love this backpack! It is perfect size for her and holds everything she needs for school. It’s perfect for everyday use. I think the price is fair for the quality and sturdiness! She is gonna be able to use this until kindergarten! I definitely recommend!

Good quality toddler backpack

Good size toddler backpack! My son is obsessed with every character on the backpack. We got matching water bottle and lunch box too so everything is coordinated for daycare. Been using for 8 months now with no issues. Very durable. All zippers intact and work with ease.

Couldn't be better!
Size: Large
Yes, these are "old lady" boxers, but you can't beat the comfort and the fact that they are all cotton with covered elastic. I usually wear a 7 in Hanes, etc. Large (or ex lg if you want them looser) fit me fine. They looked small out of the package, and even smaller after washing, but still fit. Size up if you are unsure.

READ then buy!!! ♥️
Size: Large, Size: Large
READ: I bought these because they say %100 cotton! I couldn't find another pair on here that said that. Now the reviews for these underwear are terrible. But I am super impressed with them! I am very picky down there, so I had to write this review to hopefully help others out there looking for %100 cotton underwear! 1.) Buy a size up! I am a medium normally, so I bought a large. This is because cotton shrinks! 2.) Right out of the bag, these dont feel nice, but thats why you NEED to wash them first! Right after a wash they felt extremely soft and comfy! 3.) They are total granny panties but they are perfect! I am young, and I can still rock them haha. I will be buying another set!
