A Black Poets Tale is an intimate poetry chapbook that traces the journey of a young African American woman who was adopted and raised by a white family. From growing up between worlds, navigating the weight of racism, and the sting of colorism, while also learning to reclaim her voice, her beauty, and her worth. Madelyn confronts the pain and power of her identity, peeling back the layers of societal expectations and stereotypes to reveal the quiet strength that blooms in self-acceptance. This chapbook is not just a testament to survival, it's a celebration of becoming.
