For the Sake of My Sanity: One Woman's Journey of Speaking Truth to Power and Ignorance

by DrLoni

Sake presents select pieces of spoken-word created during the author's coming of age from adolescence to adulthood and then deconstructs them through a reflective lens. It chronicles DrLoni's use of writing as a vehicle to connect with her inner strength. The book begins with -- End White Silence -- a piece she published during her tenure as a university professor. One of the book's most important pieces is -- Grandparents Love -- a touching tribute to her grandparents. The book ends with -- A Call to Action -- a fiery spoken-word piece which challenges society to honestly love and educate our children. Even within its difficult moments, Sake brims with ample doses of love for humanity.
