    Thando writing audiobook: Looking through the black window by Sydney conteh episode 5

    Looking through the black window Matin Terence Publishing house Release date 05/2022 My book is called " Looking through the black window"; similar to books like Ain't never not been black by Javon Johnson; All the Rudy Francisco books and Black Movie by Danez Smith in style, as I am heavily influenced by the poetry of American spoken word performers; despite the style and/ or topic is similar to the books stated above, "looking through the black window" has a lot of references to history, as at the end there is a list of quotes from influential black people from around the world and the poems are not based solely on my experiences but on the experience of black people all around the world; the rationale being that I want " looking the black window" to be a well-rounded view of the black experience. The target audience for "Looking Through the black window" is everyone in general, as from my research there are few books with the concept that I have; my hope is that " Looking through the black window" insight into the black experience from around for people who don't know, as some places get very little media exposure. Personally, I would love for " Looking Through the black window" to help young people, the history aspect of the book is intended to help guild them in discovering their black identity, and for kids and teenagers that are not black, to provide them with a deeper understanding of the black experience so that they can be more empathetic of the racism that affects the black people around them.
