Beskrivelse
but is a collection of poetry and prose about seeing and honoring the humanity of the Black Woman. It is a personal account of abuse, love, femininity, and redemption. It is a beautiful womanist and hip-hop ode to the one who persists on the journey to the other side of but.
Divided into four chapters and written by Tove, half of the husband and wife songwriter/producer recording artist duo Keys of Philadelphia, but explores the complexities of relationships, self-love, and womanhood. It is an insightful account of growth and healing in the midst of darkness. It is a transcendent account of why roses bloom out of season, and why sunflowers are no longer good enough.
I hope you see
the humanity of the Black Woman
on every page
and in every word...
I hope you see
that if you don't make room for her
she will unapologetically take up space...
I hope you see
her anger as justice
and
her tears as a baptism
for those who are thirsty for liberation...
I hope you see
that she is love...
but see her
This book is a part of a multi-media release entitled but. The multimedia release includes a book, a song, and a music video with the same title but by Keys of Philadelphia. The music video was filmed and directed by Dana Rice.
