For The People To Drink - Paperback

by Erika Kimberly Stanley (Author)

For The People To Drink is a book of poetry, visual art, and narrative prose. Erika K. Stanley takes us on a visual and poetic journey through Bridgeport, CT. To Erika, Bridgeport is a city of losses, and she uses the loss of industry, political campaigns, and education funding to speak in parallel to losing everyday objects and loved ones. For The People To Drink invites fresh conversations about race, identity, the city, faith, and the pain of growing up, as Erika says, "in a city that's always losing."
