I see you, book!!
Revisado: 12-29-23
As a fan of their podcast FANTI, I had to jump into this book and CHILE I’m glad I did!
I’m so glad o chose the audio so that I could hear their inflections and appreciate hearing their voices again.
This is more than a traditional audio book; this is a text book and encyclopedia that should be archived and added to. May it live on and breathe as WE continue to inspire language that shapes collective culture!
Thank you, family!

“Don’t tell nobody our business,” Michael Tubbs’ mother often told him growing up. For Michael, that meant a lot of things: Don’t tell anyone about the day-to-day struggle of being Black and broke in Stockton, CA. Don’t tell anyone the pain of having a father incarcerated for 25 years to life. Don’t tell anyone about living two lives: the brainy bookworm and the kid with the newest Jordans.

An inspiration for generations of healing and breaking cycles
Revisado: 11-27-21
This man is a true hero and inspiration. He perfectly speaks on breaking generational “curses” that plague our community due to systemic oppression. His work in Stockton sent waves around the world as I was hearing about his moves in the different cities I lived in over the course of his efforts.
The passion, perseverance, and…patience (often undeserved) act as one clear through line in this love letter to his his family both given and chosen, and his city.
Great read!
