About the Book

Glover Lane Press is proud to announce Tapestries of Faith: Black SGLBT Stories of Triumph, Family, Love & Healing, an anthology about the lives and stories of Black same gender loving bisexual and trans people. Co-Editor of Tapestries of Faith, Ifalade Ta'Shia Asanti, says, "This will be one of the most important anthologies in the history of SGLBT. Jeffrey King gave us the vision for this book during a community gathering and charged me with the task of birthing this book into the world. I am honored to be among the gatekeepers for this project." Azaan Kamau, Publisher & Editor-in-Chief of Glover Lane Press says, "This book is an important contribution to African-American history. Glover Lane Press is honored to be the publishing house to bring these stories to the world." Tapestries of Faith speaks to the often invisible contributions of African-American same gender loving bisexual and trans people to the Black power movement and the Black community at large and the richness of their cultural experiences and presence as a whole. A transformative tool for academic study and educational presentations, Tapestries of Faith will have four sections rarely explored in mainstream "gay" life. Tapestries of Faith is filled with poetry, essays and prose that intends to sooth the heart and reawaken the spirit. Anthology contributors represent a wide range of artists ranging from journalists, photographers, performance artists, playwrights and more. Among them are the distinguished C. Jerome Woods, DRED, Claudia Moss, Queen Hollins, KAUTION, Ennis Jackson, Katrina Arango, Bey Celeste and many others.
